UTSA Arts connects the cultures of the world to our community through world-class programs, exhibits, and performances leveraging partnerships with other arts organizations in San Antonio, across Texas and the nation. UTSA Arts provides educational programs for the benefit of people of all ages and backgrounds who desire to develop their creative abilities in a safe and supportive environment.
Excellence in the Arts
En Vivo Concert Series
Each year, multiple guest artists and ensembles come to UTSA’s campuses for performances, residencies, masterclasses, and clinics. The En Vivo concert series is presented free to the general public, and we welcome you to campus to be inspired by these world-class artists.
Art Exhibitions
UTSA Art Galleries host curated and juried exhibitions by professional artists and organize scholarly and thematic exhibitions that encourage cultural dialogues on wide-ranging topics for the University and San Antonio communities.
Community Art Classes
Community Art classes are open for enrollment to anyone who is interested in exploring the creative arts. Classes provide a great learning environment for anyone who has a desire to make art and values individualized attention!
Summer Camps
The School of Music is home to lifelong music learning experiences for a wide range of ages and musical abilities. From On-Corps, our beginning band for veterans, to our award-winning String Project during the academic year, and a number of camps for middle- and high-school students during the summer, we nurture music learning in a collaborative and supportive environment.
“UTSA Arts is one piece of UTSA’s bold recommitment to arts education. It will be a space of collaboration and co-creation that meaningfully engages with artists, performers, funding agencies, school districts, donors, art institutions and the whole of San Antonio’s aesthetically rich and historically grounded arts communities.”
