Guest artists and scholars share insights into their current work and research, provide guidance on current industry practices, and connect students with professional opportunities.
In 2018–2019 academic year, TDPS welcomed more than 30 guest artists and scholars in our classrooms, studios, and labs. Many of these visits were supported by the Shelly Osborne Guest Artist Fund. We are extremely grateful for this ongoing support that enables us to introduce students to a wide variety of professionals in performing arts and performance studies.
If you are interested in supporting guest artists and scholars, please contact Jean-Paul Gressieux, Department Manager, at jean-paul@berkeley.edu
