Arts Residential College

Explore, engage and energize your creativity with talented peers and supportive faculty. Collaborate to move your work from the classroom to arts spaces across campus and in the community.

In the Arts Residential College, you'll immerse yourself in Bucknell's vibrant arts scene from your very first days on campus with hands-on experiences and the opportunity to work with faculty and guest artists. Common hours with your classmates emphasize experiential learning through exposure to a wide array of arts practices and campus centers related to the arts.

Student-selected programming enhances the experience through events such as folk and swing dance workshops, figure drawing, workshops in gamelan and creative writing, field trips to Broadway musicals, and tours of museums in New York and Washington, D.C.
