The Decade of the Arts

"In the Catholic Tradition, the arts have always been closely tied to worship and the experience of the sacred; art has always been central to the University's commitment to learning, teaching, and serving, and it is of crucial importance to our continued growth as a community of learning.

With the opening of the Marie P. DeBartolo Center for the Performing Arts in 2004, Notre Dame entered its "Decade of the Arts"--a celebration of our arts legacy and fulfillment of our future."

-Rev John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., President, University of Notre Dame
