At the Sonoma State University Center for the Arts, our goal is to elevate awareness of our excellent programs by engaging with the campus and surrounding community, encouraging and facilitating innovative collaborations, and by developing new opportunities for students to foster and share their talents with a wider audience. We’re extremely proud of our faculty, students and outstanding facilities, and welcome the opportunity to share more of our stories. Check this web page often for our latest events and activities. And reach out to us to learn more about what the arts at Sonoma State University has to offer and how you can help support the next generation of artists.
