Unsung Hero: arts staff
Our arts staff support the wide array of curricular, co-curricular, and professional programs throughout Lafayette arts. Their expertise, combined with creativity and adaptive experience, help make it possible for our productions, performances, classes, and community offerings to exist. They planned, prepared, and continue to adapt to the challenges of this unique year by communicating with internal and external audiences, adapting websites, learning new technology, refining and expanding skills, and discovering new ways of connecting to our community. Our staff colleagues across the arts are essential and appreciated. They are creating experiences that make an impact now with our students, our faculty/staff, and our wider community. They are ensuring that the arts will continue to have a strong and positive impact on the other side of these challenging times.
