About
The Arts Ambassador Program is designed to increase student awareness of the arts on campus and connect students who share an interest in the arts.
We’re looking for enthusiastic and friendly students who have an interest in the arts that they want to share! Arts Ambassadors are unpaid volunteers who serve as the bridge between the arts and the U-M student body. As an Arts Ambassador you'll learn about the arts both on campus and in the community, meet local artists, and help promote arts events and activities.
Being a part of the Arts Ambassadors program is an extremely rewarding and fun experience! As an Arts Ambassador, you will be responsible for attending weekly (virtual) meetings, taking leadership roles in organizing arts events, collaborating with other Arts Ambassadors to engage students in the arts, and most importantly, spreading the word about the vast arts community at U-M!
Storytelling
This week's theme was Storytelling and featured a D&D-focused TV series, a video game created in partnership with Alaska Native storytellers and elders which delves deeply into the traditional lore of the Iñupiat people, The United Asian American Organization's new Zine dedicated to transformative justice and media, and an event on storytelling for social justice!
Sustain
This week's theme was Sustain and featured recipes to soothe and nourish you during finals!
