Arts and Culture

The GW Community is rich with arts and culture. In addition to six on-campus theatre and dance mainstage productions each year and numerous University sponsored music performances, student run groups and local professional ensembles provide a range of outlets for artistic expression on and around campus.

Located on the Foggy Bottom campus Lisner Auditorium is the second largest performance venue in the District of Columbia with acts ranging from Patrick Bruel to Sarah Geronimo in Motion, and Rita and Her Band to CNN’s A Presidential Forum on Faith, Values, and Poverty. GW students are fortunate to have the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and the Corcoran Gallery just a few blocks from campus.
