Passion. Innovation. Exploration. Connection. Excellence.
These are some of the hallmarks of the artistic enterprise -- they are also central to the mission of the College of Lake County in providing "equitable, high-quality education, cultural enrichment and partnerships to advance the diverse communities [we] serve." Indeed, the Communication Arts division is committed to providing transformative learning experiences all Lake County residents. We believe the arts are fundamental to this transformation.
We're proud to offer a diverse range of artistic, intellectual and cultural experiences -- including music, dance, theatre, gallery exhibitions, film series, literary readings and a host of scholarly and cultural presentation.
We also invite you to explore our many outstanding courses in literature, creative writing, film studies, digital media and design and the visual and performing arts that enable students to experience personal exploration and growth. Please visit www.clcillinois.edu/campus-life/arts for information on these educational offerings and the exciting events planned for the 2022-23 season.
Again, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the college ... and we hope you enjoy the show!

We respectfully acknowledge that the College of Lake County is on the ancestral homelands of the Kickapoo, Peoria, Potawatomi and other native peoples. We recognize the longstanding significance of these lands for indigenous peoples past, present and future. Historical awareness of indigenous exclusion and erasure is critically important to preventing further atrocities. The College of Lake County pledges to acknowledge the grave injustices of the past and pledges to create awareness and advance education that invites truth.
