On Thursday, Augsburg announced the creation of the John N. Schwartz ’67 School of the Arts, a destination arts hub for music, theater, and art and design. The Schwartz School of the Arts will house Augsburg’s 12 undergraduate majors in the performing and visual arts, as well as the master of music therapy program. Students and faculty in the departments of theater, music, and art and design will have new and greater opportunities for interdisciplinary, collaborative work across disciplines, including with other areas of the university. More information about plans for the school and its leadership will be available in the coming months.
