Get Curious
Our curiosity is live and in-person. Welcome back.
Brilliance is all around us, and this year we’re not only embracing what’s in our own backyard, but also the borderlands of expression and experience.
Welcome the discovery, diversity, and presentation of creativity with us as we find new and highlight what’s already here. This is the place where bleeding-edge musical artists meet steadfast performing arts, and where internationally-renowned scholars, authors, and voices meet family night. This is where curiosity is live.
So explore new artists or re-establish long-standing traditions — you’re invited to see what we’ve been working on.
Events to pique your interest...
