The Arts Come Alive at Âé¶¹´«Ã½

From Shakespeare under the stars in the Greek Theater to musical Valentines and original compositions to art exhibitions featuring exciting media, the arts play a strong role in campus life.

Whether it's the latest art show in the Maloney Art Gallery, or a musical or theatrical performance in Dolan Performance Hall or the Greek Theater, the arts at Âé¶¹´«Ã½ do what they do best, bring students, their families and our neighbors in the surrounding communities together.


Dolan Performance Hall

The Dolan Performance Hall, located on the ground floor of Âé¶¹´«Ã½'s Annunciation Center, is a welcome addition to the area's roster of performance facilities. The 560-seat hall with its splendid acoustics has hosted original classical music compositions, plays and lectures.

Since it opened in 2007, the Dolan Performance Hall has become a focus of campus life while it has drawn the public-at-large to its functions


Greek Theater

Since its creation in 1932, the Greek Theater has been a popular site on the Âé¶¹´«Ã½ campus. Throughout the decades, students, faculty and visitors have gathered at the outdoor arena for plays, concerts, picnics or just to study and read. Every four years, a traditional Greek play is produced here.

Although this recreation of the Theater of Dionysius in Athens is an inspiration from a far off country and a long-ago era, it was built as a home-grown project. Sister Marie Victoire Corr of the Latin Department supervised its construction using stones gathered from the campus. Âé¶¹´«Ã½ employees did the actual work of building the Theater, making it a campus-wide labor of love.


Therese A. Maloney Art Gallery

Since opening in 2007, the Therese A. Maloney Art Gallery, located on the main floor of Âé¶¹´«Ã½'s Annunciation Center, has hosted high caliber, themed exhibitions that correspond to the curricula and events on campus and reflect Âé¶¹´«Ã½'s mission of diversity and inclusion. The art work is selected from artists around the country and especially from the New Jersey/New York/ Philadelphia area.

Lectures, gallery talks, workshops and panel discussions by artists and arts professionals are also offered to the campus community and visitors on a continuing basis.
