What is the BU Arts Initiative?
Simply put, our goal is to make art part of every Terrier's time at BU.
Boston University Arts Initiative ensures that the arts are fundamental to the student experience by developing, supporting, and celebrating university-wide programs that advance community-building through the arts, encourage interdisciplinary arts teaching and research, and highlights diverse artists and forms of artistry.
Experience the arts on campus (and in Boston!)
The arts are deeply embedded in the intellectual and cultural fabric of Boston University. The BU Arts Initiative strives to engage all BU community members (and disciplines) in the arts. There's so much to discover!
