Greetings from the College of the Arts! It’s so good to have you back, and we have an exceptional spring season planned for you. With programming ranging from groundbreaking theatre productions to World-Premiere concerts, our spring offerings seem to shine a bit brighter this semester. On January 28, we kicked things off with the Visual Arts Modernization Project Preview Event and groundbreaking ceremony. More than 100 invited guests joined us for a sneak peek of the project as they engaged with some of the latest technology-driven art tools, experienced AR/VR project demonstrations by visual arts students, and viewed scale models of the complex. When completed, this renovation will transform our campus and community, positioning CSUF’s visual arts program – the largest in the Cal State system – as a leader in cutting-edge art education and practice within the CSUs. Follow our progress and join us on this extraordinary journey at art.fullerton.edu/vamod.
This season’s fresh slate of visual arts exhibitions and performing arts concerts and productions are sure to keep you coming back to campus! Beginning February 18, Begovich Gallery presents the exhibition “Figures, Poses, and Glances: The Coded Illustrations of J.C Leyendecker,” at MUZEO Museum & Cultural Center, exploring the coded depictions of queer culture in the eradefining images of this early twentieth-century American illustrator. The School of Music honors Black History Month with a performance of “Symphony No. 1 in E minor” by composer Florence Price – the first Black female composer to have a symphony performed by a major American orchestra. In Theatre, Maria Cominis’ “Women of Zalongo” weaves together the experiences of four generations of Greek women into a story of resilience, struggle, and survival. And in May, our student dancers and choreographers collaborate in rhythmic, expressive movement as “Spring Dance Theatre” returns to the Little Theatre.
Our diverse programming mirrors the diversity of the College of the Arts and is a testament to the values we hold. We embrace the possibility inherent in each of our students and celebrate their successes alongside them on their path to becoming future artists, educators, performers, and arts professionals. As patrons, donors, friends, and family, I know you also champion their success. Demonstrate your commitment to the future of the arts by supporting the Dean’s Fund for Excellence at any level. Donate today at arts.fullerton.edu/giving
I invite you to visit to campus our again for another performance, or to check out our progress as the Visual Arts Modernization Project moves into the next phase of construction. You may have even seen the walls of one of our new buildings going up along State College Blvd! Whatever brings you here, welcome. We are so proud to show you all that the College of the Arts at Cal State Fullerton has to offer.

ARMAND HALL
Armand Hall is a conductor and educator dedicated to the creation of new music in all venues, for all people. He is the director of programming for the Gateways Music Festival and instructor at the Eastman School of Music. From 2018-2022, he was the executive and artistic director of the ROCmusic Collaborative, an El Sistema-inspired organization in Rochester, NY. Prior to his arrival at the Eastman School of Music, he was assistant professor, associate director of bands, and coordinator of instrumental music education at the University of Memphis. There, he conducted the symphonic band, the marching band, and taught courses in music education. Additionally, he co-designed the University of Memphis’s online Master of Music Education program. From 2002-10, he served as director of bands at Dunckel Middle School and, from 2003-09, assistant director of the North Farmington High School “Raider” Marching Band in Farmington Hills, Michigan.
Hall earned his Doctor of Music Arts in wind conducting at Michigan State University with Dr. Kevin Sedatole, and Master of Music and Bachelor of Music degrees in music education from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor – studying clarinet with Deborah Chodacki.
Hall is active as a commissioner of music, having commissioned instrumental music for beginning through advanced ensembles by established and emerging composers. As a guest conductor, he has been invited to lead regional honor ensembles, collegiate ensembles, and Community ensembles, such as the Rochester Philharmonic Youth Orchestra and the American Wind Symphony Orchestra. He is also active as an adjudicator, clinician, and panelist. He has presented lectures, clinics, adjudicated for and participated in panels at the Midwest Music Clinic in Chicago, American String Teachers Association National Conference, National Association for Music Education Regional Conference, and MusicFest Canada-The Nationals.
Equally dedicated to teaching and teacher training, he is the educational director and teaching artist for the Archipelago Project, a non-profit organization charged with engaging students in music and their instruments by teaching multiple folk idioms using pedagogical techniques based on the Venezuelan El Sistema model. Dr. Hall’s work in El Sistema-inspired programs began with a life-altering trip to Venezuela as a guest artist, where he witnessed the deepest level of community and audience engagement with music. Thus, with the Archipelago Project, he has traveled throughout the United States and Venezuela teaching music students, training instructors, and performing for their communities. He is a board member of El Sistema USA®, to support music-making and in diverse communities across the country and is currently chair of the board.
Hall is a member of the College Band Directors National Association, National Association for Music Education, American String Teachers Association, College Music Society, Michigan School Band and Orchestra Association, Tennessee Music Education Association, New York State School Music Association, Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia Fraternity of America, and Kappa Kappa Psi National Honorary Band Fraternity.
