ArtOberfest is a monthlong celebration of arts and humanities programming, advocacy, and engagement on the Rockhurst University campus this October in recognition of National Arts & Humanities Month. The objectives of ArtOberfest are to:
- Provide free access to arts and humanities public events to audiences on and off campus.
- Engage the Rockhurst and greater Kansas City communities in an array of thought-provoking arts and humanities events and “pop-up” activities.
- Raise public awareness on and off campus about the significant role arts and humanities play in our lives.
ArtOberfest events are free and open to anyone—please click on any event listing below to learn more or to register.
