Harper College will be closed Monday, December 23 through Wednesday, January 1 for Winter Break.
Harper College's art collection contains more than 300 pieces and is valued at over $1 million. The College employs an art curator to ensure proper management and accessibility to the collection.
Each year, the national Small Works Exhibit showcases approximately 25 small works of art, chosen (from over 300 entries) by a juror. The exhibition is made possible through the support of the Foundation and provides an opportunity for Harper students to see a variety of art forms, from painting to mixed media, while calling attention to a cadre of national artists. Learn more about Small Works.
Harper College performances have entertained thousands of people for more than 40 years. Programs in music speech and theatre have produced inspired graduates, many of whom have gone on to advance their education in the arts.
Recognizing the importance of advancing its programs to increase access to more students and the community, Harper College built a state-of-the-art Performing Arts Center. If you would like to support current and future students, we invite you to participate in our Take A Seat Campaign. Please contact the Educational Foundation at 847.925.6490 for a personal consultation.
