Understanding Arts and Culture as One

The Benjamin T. Rome School of Performing Arts educates, engages, and energizes its student body in dynamic programs that integrate classroom learning with real-world production and performance.

Our variety of undergraduate and graduate programs allows students to find their unique paths, and to develop into professional artists, scholars, educators, and critics.

With students from around the United States and throughout the world, the Rome School maintains a vibrant and welcoming community. Students form relationships with their peers and professors; these friendships become professional contacts during careers in the arts. We are devoted to nurturing the production and understanding of artistic expression with the belief that arts and culture are one and that arts are an essential component of every liberal arts education.
