Do you doodle all over your lecture notes and thrive when you explore an art display? BYU is host to many professional musicians and dancers, as well as talented student performers in all of the fine arts. Visit arts.byu.edu to peruse the current world-renowned concert and theater series, and visit moa.byu.edu to stay informed about BYU's breathtaking art display schedule.
