About
As an urban research university, UH cultivates experimentation and collaboration between various arts disciplines. In 2003 the George and Cynthia Woods Mitchell Foundation gave $20 million to UH to develop the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center for the Arts to bring performing, visual and literary arts together in creative collaborations. This transformative alliance among the schools of Art, Music, Theatre & Dance, the Creative Writing Program and Blaffer Art Museum has gained national recognition and attracted renowned visiting artists to the campus.
