As an arts school, we let curiosity guide us in everything we do. That’s why our information sessions are on-the-go experiences designed for creative minds like yours. We take you behind the scenes where students and faculty spark curiosity and make creative discoveries every day. Join us to explore our programs in art and design, dance, film and animation, music and theatre.
Our team of faculty-recommended arts ambassadors are trained to give you a comprehensive tour tailored specifically to your academic and creative interests. If you’d like to see all of UWM, you can also add a campus tour to our on-the-go info sessions. We’re excited to meet you!
