Visiting Artist Series

The Visiting Artist Series brings artists of international acclaim to the Quad City region, offering community members the opportunity to see professional performances by nationally-touring artists. One- to two-week residencies provide in-depth and often repeated contact between the artist and audience. Outreach performances take place mostly in schools, but also at business locations, social service organizations, and public facilities. Each residency concludes with a public performance in a traditional concert hall. Most of these concerts are free, though donations are accepted at the door.
