Our community—faculty, staff, current students, alumni, and residents of the surrounding region—is stitched together by a shared passion and dedication to fine arts and cultural pursuits.
We believe art can reflect and renew community, mirror the times we live in, and amplify individual voice. It is through collaboration, challenge, and creative rigor that lives are shaped, talents are amplified, and the Fine Arts become not just a discipline, but a way of being.
Here, cultural life isn’t just an add‑on; it’s woven into the everyday, offering windows into other worlds, bridges between communities, and moments that linger. Imagine walking into the Hermann Fine Arts Center on a warm evening, the scent of wood and stage lights in the air, as you settle into your seat and the lights dim for a performance that blends dance, music, and story in ways you’ve never seen before.
Cultural dialogue at Marietta also reaches out beyond campus. Field trips, guest lectures, author‑talks, professional artists visiting—all are part of the cultural pulse here.
