CAMPUS & COMMUNITY

ACCESS & PARTICIPATION

Through attendance, inquiry and sometimes even stepping on stage, Campus & Community Engagement programs provide performing arts-based activities, like our K12 Student Matinee series and Family Art Days, for people of all ages to help demystify the creative process and encourage curiosity.

Campus & Community Engagement breaks boundaries between artists and audiences with programs that create opportunities for students, community members and visiting artists to exchange ideas, converse and learn.

ARTS CITIZENSHIP

Art has the power to help us understand ourselves and the world in which we live. We are committed to presenting visiting artists with the Artist Partner Programs whose work is inspired by social justice and the power of the human spirit. Audiences engage in interactive experiences that provide perspectives, tools and resources necessary to bring about social change.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Programs like NextLOOK, composer readings and masterclasses both for and led by UMD students provide professional development for emerging artists and arts entrepreneurs.
