Shrek and friends will be coming to a swamp near you as part of UCF Celebrates the Arts, April 14-16 at Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts.

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.

Honoring excellence in the field of animation, the 49th Annual Annie Awards presented visual creators with animation’s highest honor.

UCF’s Limbitless Solutions will lead a new, first-of-its-kind clinical trial this spring to examine how the brain adapts to advanced, bionic arms in children born without a limb.

After experiencing first-hand how education can help one reach new heights, local artist and UCF alum Christian Stanley ’11 has completed a mural at UCF Downtown to remind students, faculty, staff why they’re at the university.

The program awarded a total of $1 million to 32 teams, several of which included CAH faculty members.

The American Advertising Awards, home of the ADDY Award, is one of the industry’s largest creative competitions, with nearly 35,000 professional and student entries each year.

Emerging media student Valeria Villa works at Amazon and can have tuition and fees paid up front as part of the company’s Career Choice Program.

Best known for his unique photo-based sculptural installations that have been exhibited in galleries and museums nationally and internationally, Brooks Dierdorff’s latest exhibition opens at the Casselberry Sculpture House on February 11.

Faculty members from across UCF share what it takes to achieve progress: collaboration, perseverance, diversity of perspective, acceptance of diversity, and, through it all, inspiration.
