Excellence honors God.
That philosophy is behind everything we do at Northwe stern, including making art. In the studio. On stage. Back stage. The fine arts at Northwestern are not an education al extra. They’re an important part of all students’ learn ing. For those who make art—and those who experience it. Northwestern students in the arts stay creative throughout their lives. Our graduates include a Chicago gallery owner. Carnegie Hall performer. New York playwright. As artists educated to be courageous and faithful, they understand the value of art for reflecting the worl d. And redeeming it.
