MacEwan Arts And Cultural Management Program

Students in the Arts and Cultural Management Program have one thing in common: a love and passion for the arts! They are drawn to the arts world because of its creative and vibrant spirit.

Successful graduates come from diverse backgrounds. Some find their passion lies in the performing arts like theatre, dance or music, while others come to MacEwan with a visual arts focus, and still others dream of pursuing a career in cultural industries like publishing or film.

Many of MacEwan's Arts and Cultural Management students hold post-secondary degrees or diplomas from institutions across the country, while others have many years of work experience in a business or administrative setting and are ready to transition into a career they are passionate about. Of course, for those students who know early on they are ready to make a difference in the arts and cultural sector, MacEwan gives them the start they need.
