Arts Quarter Working Group

Charged by Provost Peggy Agouris and Dean of the Faculty of Arts & Sciences, Suzanne Raitt, the Arts Quarter Working Group builds on the work of the previous Arts Visioning Committee to explore ways to strengthen, integrate and expand the arts at William & Mary as a cohesive and collaborative whole.

The opening of the new Arts Quarter provides an opportunity to craft an integrated identity for the Arts at W&M as a place for innovative arts curriculum, performances and experiences. This working group will further explore advancement opportunities to support enhanced visibility and outreach for the Arts at W&M.
