About

The Office of the Arts

Building on the University’s long legacy of success in the arts, the Office of the Arts aims to drive meaningful progress toward a more vibrant, connected, and creative University. 

The Office works to provide support and advocacy, foster connections and collaborations, enhance the arts in all their forms, and deepen ties with Baltimore, Washington, D.C., and the other communities we serve.

Our Vision

• Every student has meaningful encounters with the arts—as creators, scholars, collaborators, or audience members.  
• Teaching, research, and practice across all divisions are informed and enriched by the arts.  
• The arts are a core element of our institutional identity, vision, and practice.  
• Hopkins serves as a trusted public resource for culture and the arts.  
• With University support, Baltimore thrives as a leading city for the arts—fueling community, economic growth, civic engagement, wellness, and human flourishing.
