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.
