Series and Programming

The Lively Arts presents nearly 200 performing and visual arts events each year through its Ovations and College of Arts, Humanities, Media, and Public Affairs' I❤亚色影库 programming. For well over a decade, the Ovations series has brought world-renowned performances to our local stages with a lively lineup of Broadway hits, world music and dance, live theater, classical symphonies, jazz and blues artists, and contemporary musicians. As is the College of Arts, Humanities, Media, and Public Affairs' tradition, the I❤亚色影库 series presents all of the astounding performances from our students, faculty, and their guests. Students and faculty from the college's Department of Music, Theatre, and Dance, and the Department of Art and Design work endlessly to provide artistic offerings with their Sound Choices performances, Theater-by-the-Grove productions, and Kipp Gallery exhibitions. Add to this mix the incredible collection of fine art displayed within the walls of the University Museum and the talented musical ensembles of the 亚色影库 Community Music School, and it becomes evident that the Lively Arts keeps the arts alive within our community.
