Gifts to the Faculty of Arts support our students, faculty and programs, giving them the resources to create and discover. In addition to the Arts Fund, which allows the dean and department chairs to seize opportunities and fund the areas for the greatest impact, the Faculty of Arts has identified the following priority initiatives:
Enhance the student experience
Together we can ensure that Arts students graduate as engaged, global citizens by supporting scholarships and awards, programs that connect students with community organizations, and international and experiential learning opportunities.
Enrich research and creative activities
Philanthropy can enhance research and community engagement at the University of Alberta by establishing an academic position focused on a particular area of research, or supporting a lecture series that provides access to thought leaders and engages in public discourse.

However, renovations are needed to create a learning, teaching and performance space that matches the university’s outstanding music program and the high aspirations of UofA students. Take a moment to watch Bill Street the chair of the department of music, walk you through Convocation Hall as it is now and create the vision for the future.
