ARTS by George! 2026 - what a night 🤩

Our Mason Arts students were truly dazzling. We witnessed incredible performances from the George Mason University School of Dance, Mason Vocal Studies & Opera Theater, the George Mason University School of Theater, Green Machine, the Reva and Sid Dewberry School of Music, Mason Community Arts Academy - and more!

There were fascinating showcases and exhibitions from the George Mason University School of Art, Mason Exhibitions, Mason Game Design, and the George Mason University Arts Management Program.

Plus, a moving performance from Mason alumna/Broadway baby Adelina Mitchell and a charisma-packed concert from Jeff Goldblum and the Mildred Snitzer Orchestra.
