Visiting Artists & Lecturers

Visiting lecturers and artists bring new perspectives and insights to students that help spur creativity.
Master classes, demonstrations and lectures offer students opportunities to interact with outstanding role models in their academic fields.
Departments annually submit requests for assistance to bring lecturers or artists to campus as enrichment programs that complement the campus curriculum.
