PFA Events

The Department of Performing and Fine Arts is committed to building community through the arts. From gallery exhibits to performances, each area of the department contributes to the cultural fabric of Fayetteville. The Department of Performing and Fine Arts brings nationally recognized speakers and performers to campus; and throughout the year the 1,134 seat Seabrook Auditorium is filled with the passion and drama of symphonic music, live theater, chamber music concerts and dance. The power of the arts to inform, enrich, and inspire is what makes the Department of Performing and Fine Arts the cultural and intellectual center of the university and beyond.
