Welcome!
The Arts and Special Collections Research Center offers resources and spaces to support your research in the arts (music, art, theater, performance) and in all disciplines of rare and special collections. This exciting blend of materials is your creative hub for inspiration, critical analysis, performance, and new scholarship. Our team is ready to partner with you to help get your work started!
Individuals
You are welcome to stop by anytime and use our spaces and general collections. Contact us for more information.
If you are interested in visiting or working with the special collections, please make an appointment. These materials are stored behind the scenes, and we need time to pull the items and set them up in the reading room for your use.
Classes and Groups
We would love to collaborate with your group or class! Please contact us in advance so we can work with you to select the best sources and instruction for your needs.
