Creativity is at the heart of everything we do.

At the University of Iowa, we collaborate across campus and community, blending artistry and technology to offer a tremendous variety of ways to enjoy the performing arts—whether you are a creator, performer, or audience member.

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 of a new video that highlights 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.
