UW-Madison Chancellor Biddy Martin has designated the 2010-11 academic year as the "Year of the Arts," celebrating the power and purpose of the arts to the campus and its community. The Bolz Center for Arts Administration is a partner in the year-long celebration. And the 2010 Collegium will be held concurrently with the official launch.

Details on the celebration, the marquee events, and related activities are available through the Year of the Arts website.

Video from the public launch event is available below, featuring Chancellor Biddy Martin and National Endowment for the Arts Chairman Rocco Landesman, with some rather enthusiastic Bolz Center alumni and students in the crowd.
