An Artist Collective                                                                   Click here to see what ArtCo is up to!!

 

An Artist Collective is the only interdisciplinary performance group on campus. As a group, they seek to bring together a diverse ensemble of artists (actors, dancers, painters, writers, musicians, photographers, sculptors, mathematicians, linguists, finger painters...) to relate to and inspire one another. Members will have chances to participate in and lead workshops in different forms of artistic expression and community art installations on and around campus. Artist Collective is shaped heavily by the ideas and input of its members, so in many ways Artist Collective is a chance to bring the special, creative, artistic talents and ideas that you have into a group of people that is eager to listen and play.

This group creates and performs song cycles in the style of the contemporary and little-known song cycle composers. A song cycle, for the group's purposes, is defined as a group of songs designed to be performed as a single entity usually by the same composer or composers of similar style. The group aims to give performance opportunity to the cohesive, and collaborative ensemble of actor-singers, bettering one another as performers and exposing this very relevant genre to the Muhlenberg campus.
