A letter from our director
Dear friends,
The School of Visual & Performing Arts would like to take a moment to thank each and every one of our patrons for coming out to support the arts at UWL!
We had a number of attendance-shattering records this year across our departments: from the hundreds of folks who showed for our exhibition openings, to standing-room only performances for music ensembles, and packed houses for Theatre & Dance productions.
We are hard at work on next year’s season flier! If you would like to receive our 2026-2027 season flier, please send your mailing address to vpa@uwlax.edu – or sign up for our VPA digital newsletter by clicking here.
See you in the fall!
Director of VPACheers!
Pete Rydberg
