The next event of the day, kicking off at 3 p.m. in the Fisher Center, will zero-in on creative storytelling and will feature executives from DreamWorks, StoryCrate and Skoll.

To celebrate the peak of the Hope Summit, classes are canceled on Wednesday.

The fall festival will start at 11:30 a.m. on the Main Lawn, featuring pumpkins, music and rides.

Community trick or treating will also take place that same day from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. on campus.

The summit concludes with a writers round featuring Belmont alumni Allen Shamblin, Emily Falvey, Cameron Bedell and Luke Laird at 7 p.m. on Wednesday in the Fisher Center.
