ARTS NC STATE connects with students
NC State boasts active organizations that include:
Campus Arts Council (CAC)
Campus Arts Council Over the past 10 years, the Campus Arts Council (CAC) has established itself as a student organization with a mission of education, service and advocacy. Some of the activities that CAC regularly supports are serving as ushers at performances, coordinating opportunities to go as a group to arts events on and off campus, receptions and post-performance discussions after concerts, coordinating the annual Student Art Purchase, assisting with publicity for ARTS NC STATE events, and serving as student leaders to support initiatives on campus that enhance the lives of NC State students through the arts. Students who volunteer to be in this organization have a passion for supporting the arts on campus and encouraging all students to find their own place at ARTS NC STATE. CAC is always looking for great students to join this community, call Lori Jones at 919.513.3052 or email lori_jones@ncsu.edu

The Curricular Connections Guide exists to integrate ARTS NC STATE programming into the university’s curriculum in appropriate and meaningful ways. Arts Outreach staff produce this comprehensive guide each semester to identify specific course connections with all six ARTS NC STATE visual and performing arts programs. Started in 2004, the Curricular Connections Guide has served as a way for the arts programs to provide specific opportunities to faculty that allow for enhanced learning for their students. Examples of collaboration include artists and representatives from arts program leading a discussion or workshop in the classroom, students being welcomed into the Gregg Museum's permanent collection for a behind the scenes tour, and students being encouraged to attend performances or exhibitions for extra credit or writing assignments.
