Concordia College and our Continuing Studies team seek to develop a sense of partnership with our community and find ways to foster community-campus relationships that benefit everyone. Find events, activities, courses and other opportunities to network with peers, meet new friends, enjoy cultural experiences and engage in meaningful, purposeful learning.
The gallery showcases works by Concordia students and faculty, and features local and regional artists, and begins in the skyway that connects the Olin Art and Communications Center with the second floor of the Frances Frazier Comstock Theatre building.
See details of upcoming exhibits below.
Each Concordia Theatre season presents a full and varied experience for students and audience alike. There are four mainstage productions – including a musical – drawing from genres such as classical and contemporary dramas, new works, issue-orientated plays and comedies. Additionally, our Lab Theatre is home to senior thesis projects and course showcases.
The music department hosts numerous events during the year that bring community members to campus. All are welcome to attend these performances free of charge.
