The Arts Portal seeks to enrich curriculum across the College of Liberal Arts by increasing awareness of performances, exhibits, and other arts opportunities of special relevance to College departments, centers, and programs, and by encouraging the incorporation of student attendance into course offerings as requirements or recommendations. Through a curated website and contacts from both faculty and sponsoring institutions, The Arts Portal will ease and foster linkage of arts happenings on campus and in the Austin community to the daily life of faculty and students alike.
