Excellent facilities, outstanding performance opportunities and a talented faculty distinguish the arts at Alma College. The College offers majors in art, music, theatre and dance, but rewarding opportunities to deepen involvement with the arts are open to students from all majors. In fact, more than a third of all Alma students take part in at least one musical, theatre or dance performance each year.

Alma’s off-campus study programs do more than place students in exciting locales to meet interesting people; they also create new opportunities for personal growth and skill development. One of the best ways to learn about other societies and cultures is to study and travel in international settings. You do not always have to know a foreign language.
