UNCW students can purchase a ticket for any UNCW Presents show for only $5. Students must present their UNCW One Card at the Kenan Auditorium Box Office to receive this discount.
The Office of the Arts internship program provides students with a suite of responsibilities across the spectrum of arts administration and concert production and management. These include marketing and public relations, artist services, production tracking, and contract management.
The positions report to various staff members in UNCW’s Office of the Arts as assigned. Internships run year-round, offering students the ability to work during the Lumina Festival of the Arts and the Kenan Auditorium Presents season.
UNCW students can to serve as volunteers at events in Kenan Auditorium, Mainstage Theatre, Beckwith Recital Hall, and the SRO Theater. Volunteers are the first point of contact for patrons upon their arrival at every show.
Volunteers handle many of the logistical tasks that allow our events to operate smoothly, while also serving as a resource for patrons. The range of responsibilities for volunteers varies depending on the nature of the event. Learn more about how to become a volunteer.
Our vision to inspire, connect, and cultivate brings stellar artists to our campus to further enrich our student-centered learning experience through the cultural arts. We believe that the arts inspire, engage, and bring about innovation in education and growth.
UNCW faculty members can request tickets to bring their students to UNCW Presents performances through our Linking Learning to the Arts program. We encourage faculty members to use Linking Learning to the Arts to support their coursework and expose students to artists and speakers from our UNCW Presents series. Linking Learning to the Arts will provide your students with interesting and exciting opportunities to experience course content beyond the classroom contributing to a more expansive university experience.
