Lafayette has a vision for every student to have meaningful experiences with artistic creation and expression. A Mellon Foundation grant is enabling the College to infuse the performing and visual arts throughout the curriculum and co-curricular activities, to create and enhance programs in the arts, and to strengthen Lafayette’s connections with artists and arts communities.
