Multiracial Heritage Series
Originally known as Multiracial Identity Week, programmed as a week in October, the Multiracial Heritage Series (MRHS) now spans the entire academic year. The goal of the week has traditionally been to address issues that foster dialogue on race and identity, to reach Brown’s diverse population, and ultimately to establish bridges across racial difference. A few of the signature events from the series: Multiracial Family Brunch and Loving Week.

The Native American Heritage Series (NAHS), in collaboration with Native Americans at Brown (NAB) and the Native American and Indigenous Studies (NAISI) focuses on the politics and culture of Native Americans. Signature events of the series includes annual Spring Thaw Pow Wow and Indigenous People's Day gathering.
South West Asian Northern African Heritage Series
The Southwest Asian North African (SWANA) Heritage Series (SHS) was established in the Fall of 2016. Students and staff recognized that the Heritage Series was structurally exclusive and that the incorporation of Southwest Asian and North African (SWANA) programming was necessary because that racialized experienced was not adequately addressed in any existing series.
