Iowa: Your Destination for the Performing Arts
The University of Iowa has long been a place where creativity and the arts are celebrated. We are proud to be part of Performing Arts at Iowa—and proud to highlight just how amazing this campus and community are. With music composed by UI School of Music student Sean Harken, the video is a celebration—and an example—of all that can be created here.

"At Iowa, new work is at the heart of everything we do. From composers and choreographers to playwrights and designers, our students don’t just perform—they invent. New Work City helps us share that magic with the wider community." –Mary Beth Easley, Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of Theatre Arts
