Events Lectures

In addition to our nationally recognized faculty, CVPA is proud to welcome dozens of visiting artists, musicians, and scholars to campus each year. These visits enliven our classrooms, studios, and rehearsal halls with unique and ever-changing perspectives on a variety of topics. These visits also provide a wealth of opportunities for critical feedback and networking for a career after UMass Dartmouth.
