The app is back!

New Fine Arts department sites launched

Last month we launched two new department sites in the Faculty of Fine Arts. The new Dance and Music sites have a simplified program structure and expanded facilities sections which feature 360° views of classrooms and studios. Seeing that performance is essential to these curriculums, we've moved the performances content out of the “About” sections and into the main navigation. Even in a pandemic, the show must go on!
