University of Chicago Arts Council
Mission Statement
The Arts Council exists to foster the arts at the University of Chicago. It understands the Arts as integral to the University's educational objectives, to the cultural vitality of the campus, to the University's role in the city of Chicago and to its national and international reputation. The Council works to sustain the general visibility of the Arts and to advocate the Arts within discussions both about the University's future and about the future of higher education in America. The Council seeks to improve the communication, planning, and collaboration among the individual arts programs on our campus; to strengthen connections among the academic programs, the co-curricular programs, and the professional arts organizations; and to deepen the cultural connections between the University and the city.
