Art & Industry: Building Your Creative Career

Are you a student interested in turning your creative passion into a profession? Join us for the Arts & Industry: Building Your Creative Career event, an evening designed to help you explore careers in the arts, connect with creative professionals, and gain insights from successful alumni!

AGENDA

This is a "must-attend" Career Month event for arts students looking to expand your network and career opportunities!

UMBC's Career Month is an opportunity for all students from first year to PhD to explore their professional options through workshops, alumni chats, industry fairs, employer site visits, and more.
