The Windgate Center for Fine and Performing Arts
Our students and faculty have outperformed UCA’s fine arts facilities for years. Thanks to a $20 million matching gift from the Windgate Foundation, we are reshaping the arts experience and ushering in new social, cultural and economic opportunities for us all. This cutting-edge center will certainly wow audiences and grow the creative economy – but it will also foster new collaborative partnerships across multiple academic disciplines, enhance quality of place and produce graduates who are critical thinkers and creative problem-solvers.
- With spaces specifically designed for acoustics, lighting and performances, this innovative venue supports the Conway Symphony Orchestra.
- We have a thriving Artists in Residence Program and new space for Public Appearances, which offer an elevated arts experience in central Arkansas.
- This incredible new facility is attracting more students, faculty and patrons – directly impacting our local economy.
