2016 Festival of the Arts

This year’s Festival of the Arts was a great success! Thanks to the dedication, creativity, and artistry of our students, faculty, and alum the College of the Arts presented a vast and rich series of Art events for our community. This year’s two-week festival once again raised the bar. We presented events that spanned over just about every discipline within the College of the Arts. We presented lectures, workshops, gallery shows, concerts, performances, a play, and a fashion show. We also raised the level of collaboration across disciplines. Congratulations to all on a wonderful Festival of the Arts 2016.

ArTech Fusion, the central event of the Festival of the Arts was also a great success. We saw lectures, films, and performances that merged Art and technology in inspiring ways. Music and sound took center stage through several lectures and performances, along with a multi-disciplinary theatrical event involving bamboo, that certainly signified the collaboration across the college. The night culminated with Nick Spitzer complimentary and gracious acceptance of our 2016 SPARK Lifetime Achievement Award.
Mark your calendars for next year. The Beaux Arts Ball will be at the Student Union Ballroom on Friday October 21, 2016. ArTech Fusion will be at the ACA on Friday March 17, 2016.
