Wake the Arts leads with inclusive, diverse, and equitable practices to ensure Wake Forest is a place where the Arts thrive, and are available and accessible to all.

Wake the Arts Center

When you imagine life on a college campus, you probably think of a place filled with smart, inventive people having inspiring conversations about every subject imaginable. The Wake the Arts Center exists to foster just that.

Drawing together artists, scholars, students, faculty, and staff from every corner of our campus, the Wake the Arts Center uses performance collaborations—with Chemistry, Religion, History, Politics, Math, Romance Languages, Neuroscience, Documentary Film, and really anything else you can think of—to give us all a place, a time, and a reason to talk to each other about the things we care about.
