Welcome to The Arts
Augustana University's long-standing tradition of excellence in the performing and visual arts impacts all students, as well our local community and region.
Augustana School of Music
Whether you are interested in a major or minor in music, the Augustana School of Music offers rigorous and rewarding opportunities for those who want to make music their vocation or avocation. In music, students have the opportunity to participate in several wind, choral and string ensembles.
Theatre
In theatre, student actors, musicians, designers and technicians produce four main stage productions per year and are involved in numerous student productions and organizations, including Brand Name Improv and the student-led Augustana Collaborative Theatrical Society (ACTS).
The Visual Arts
In the visual arts, our Center for Visual Arts houses studios for printmaking, sculpture, painting, ceramics, drawing and graphic design, as well as galleries for professional and student exhibitions.
