Welcome New & Prospective students!

 

"We believe that the arts are an expression of our culture’s values; are a driver of innovation and a catalyst for the economy; and have an obligation to positively affect social change by contributing to our cultural and political discourse. We recognize the inherent responsibility of the artist as a leader in defining culture and lifestyle—what we see and hear, the products we use, the environments we inhabit, and how we communicate.

We are certain that there is no greater profession – no greater calling in life – than this. We are #ArtsWinthrop."

-Karen Oremus, Interim Dean, College of Visual and Performing Arts
