Started in 2015, UCF Celebrates the Arts continues to grow with this year’s festival. Here, representing various artistic genres, are five key programs at the festival to check out.

Eight faculty members with the College of Arts and Humanities were honored for their works, which ranged from novels to textbooks.

Associate professor of Russian Alla Kourova was honored by the Florida Foreign Language Association with the organization’s Most Valuable Teacher Award.

During the Connecting Classrooms project, American and Russian students are paired up as pen pals and given monthly tasks to present information about each other and their cultures in the target language they’re learning.

The Italian Club gave out free slices of pizza in celebration of National Sausage Pizza Day. Anyone who followed the club and the College of Arts and Humanities on social media was eligible for a free slice.

In the next month, the College of Arts and Humanities will offer a wide variety of information sessions and open houses related to our various degree programs.

Spotlight, our college’s annual year-in-review, features stories, photos and videos that shine a light on the impact of the arts and humanities.

UCF Celebrates the Arts is accepting event/exhibit proposals for festival inclusion. Deadline to apply is September 26.
