Mark your calendars for the inaugural Arts Crawl, taking place on the University of Wisconsin–Madison campus from Thursday, March 31 – Saturday, April 2.
Arts Crawl highlights a collection of arts events held over several days in the arts departments and co-curricular arts units at UW–Madison. It is an opportunity to have creative arts experiences, which may take the form of demonstrations and workshops, as well as the chance to visit arts classes, lectures, talks, performances, exhibitions and rehearsals.
Attendees are invited to curate their own experience. Sit in on a weaving course or watch films by students in Communication Arts. See a glass blowing demonstration, walk through an immersive installation at the campus art museum or attend a performance by Grammy-nominated musicians.
Arts Crawl is presented in partnership with Line Breaks Festival (April 1-2, 2022), one of the largest annual hip hop theater festivals in the Midwest. In the fifteenth anniversary year of the Office of Multicultural Arts Initiatives, the sixteenth annual Line Breaks Festival will be a homecoming for UW alumni involved in multicultural arts over the last 15 years and beyond. Line Breaks Festival events are free and open to the public, but registration is required.
Many Arts Crawl events are free and open to the public. Some events require advance registration or ticket purchase. To view the whole schedule, visit go.wisc.edu/ArtsCrawl.
