Georgetown’s arts programming is enhanced by the university’s galleries and cross-campus collaborations that promote interdisciplinary research, initiatives, and events. Washington, D.C., home to countless world-renowned museums and performing arts centers, provides the perfect opportunity for an immersive arts education that extends well beyond the classroom.
