When you give to the College of the Arts, you are helping us offer competitive scholarships to the brightest and most talented students, recruit and retain a stellar faculty and support artistic and scholarly opportunities for students and faculty who travel worldwide to perform, exhibit and conduct research.

Our students will be the artistic leaders of tomorrow.

Every year, the Dean and the Directors work together with the Director of Development to set the goals and priorities for fundraising. Relying on the University Strategic Plan and the Mission and Vision of the College, these decisions inform donors of how best they can help our scholars become top-notch artist entrepreneurs.

The Board of Visitors of the College of the Arts marshal and mobilize community and financial resources that are vital to the college mission of developing artist entrepreneurs for creative and professional success. The College of the Arts’ faculty of professionals, scholars and practicing artists have the rigor to nurture and hone their students’ unique blend of talent, grit and passion. This mission is part academic, part alchemy. The efforts of the Board of Visitors produce essential ingredients for transforming the college’s students into thriving professionals of the creative class in Atlanta and beyond.

The Dean’s Society represents those donors whose gifts totaled $1,000 or more, as these annual gifts provide vital support for Georgia State. We’d like to recognize this premier group of supporters of the College of Arts. Through their generosity, our students can receive a 21st-century arts education while making the arts visible, vital, and innovative.
