Curricular Connections to the Arts

Modlin Center is commited to expanding access and engagement for the University of Richmond community. Curricular Connections to the Arts is a program that encourages faculty members from all disciplines to include the performing arts in their classrooms, enriching course instruction and student learning experiences. Explore opportunities below to engage with visiting artists for fall 2022.

Classroom Tickets
When faculty require attendance at a Modlin Arts Presents performance as part of a course curriculum, Modlin Center can subsidize complimentary tickets for the instructor and class roster. Class tickets are also available to all UR Free Theater and Dance mainstage productions. To reserve, please complete the Classroom Ticket Request Form. Class tickets are limited so submit your requests early. For questions, please email the Modlin box office or call 804-289-8980.

For other ways in which you might incorporate the arts into your classroom, please reference free programs by the Department of Music, Department of Theatre and Dance, and University Museums.

Artists-In-Residence
We plan numerous artist-in-residence events that extend beyond the time of a performance. These engagement activities provide the campus and community with opportunities to interact with professional artists, gain insight into the creative process, and explore diverse perspectives and voices that shape our world and broaden our experiences. In addition to free public programs accompanying many of our performances, some of the visiting artists are available for workshops, discussions, and class visits. Email Shannon Hooker, Assistant Director, if you would like more information about how to bring an artist to your classroom.
