Arts and Culture

Create, Engage, Grow

Arts and Culture at Hawkeye brings you lectures, performances, exhibits, and workshops, giving you the chance to explore arts and culture right on campus. These events help you learn new things, grow beyond the classroom, and become a more active citizen in your community and the world.

Hawkeye Reads


Hawkeye Reads brings the campus together by using reading to build community. You get to join in conversations with classmates, teachers, and staff, all centered around what you’re reading. It’s a great way to connect with others and be part of something bigger on campus while improving your own reading and thinking skills.
