A piece of ritualistic headwear with deep spiritual significance. ✨

👑 This spectacular gilded and jeweled crown would have been worn by a Buddhist ritual specialist or by an initiate into the esoteric teachings of such a master. Donning the crown, its wearer would be symbolically transported to the center and summit of the Buddhist universe.

👀 "Ritual Crown" is currently on view in the South Asian Art Galleries.

They really showed OUT😮‍🔥🎨🎶

From the gallery to the stage, our students put their creativity on full display at the Student Art Show & Musicale, last Monday—and they did not come to play 👏

As we wrap up the semester, it’s moments like this that remind us just how special our Fine Arts community is. The talent, the passion, the ENERGY… unmatched.

We love to see it! 🐅🎶🎨

H-SC Theatre in motion 🎭

As we wrap up the semester, our students take the stage for their final performances, while showcasing the work they’ve developed all term in both Directing and Asian theatre.

Guided by Professor Shirley, students explore the craft of directing—shaping stories, vision, and movement—while Professor Matt leads them through the rich traditions and techniques of Asian theatre, expanding their global perspective on performance.

These final presentations reflect their growth, creativity, and willingness to take bold artistic risks.
