ARC Mission Co-Sponsorships

ARC is directing approximately 10% of it's programming funds towards supporting arts research on campus. These Mission Co-Sponsorship funds can be requested by any unit/faculty on campus planning an event central to creative research, whether in the arts, sciences, humanities, etc.

ARC's mission co-sponsorships are designed to make a significant contribution to bring an artist / writer / dancer / playwright / performer / musician / filmmaker / art historian / creative scholar to campus, and are given at the discretion of Director Beth Piatote, with support from Associate Director Laurie Macfee. There must be a campus approved chartstring available for material transfer of the funds. This form is currently only open for FALL 2024; we will begin accepting requests for spring 2025 on December 1.

If you are interested in ARC space co-sponsorships. We rent out our Loft space for  lectures/workshops/conferences and co-sponsor a limited number of events at no cost as part of our co-sponsorship. Student groups: you do not need a chartstring for space co-sponsorships! Please read more about space availability here.

Arts Research Center Staff will consider requests the first Monday of each month, please apply early and accordingly to cover your event. 

Please note: Our mission co-sponsorships are 3/4 pledged for fall, and partially committed for spring 2025.
