If you have a passion for the arts but think there’s no way you can make a living
in the field, think again. The Arts Production & Management program gives you the
skills you need to take charge in the arts industry.
There are lots of ways to learn besides lectures and tests. Enhanced courses incorporate
experiential learning into the curriculum.
You can get out into the city and apply what you have covered in your coursework to
real-life situations. Take advantage of Baltimore's central location to visit Washington,
D.C., New York City or nearby rural areas.
Here are some examples of what you might get to do in an enhanced course:
Analyze efficiency on the floor of a Baltimore factory.
Spend the day in New York City to observe the way the city works.
Develop a marketing plan for actual clients.
See Shakespeare at the Folger Library.
Program a robot in your coding class.
Engage community groups to work for social change.
Visit archives and historic sites to conduct original research.
Sit in on a U.S. Foreign Relations Senate hearing.
Hone your networking skills at a business dinner.
Experience an evening at Busboys and Poets in Washington, D.C.
As a Helen P. Denit honors scholar, you earn 3 honors credits for every enhanced course
you take. When you register in MyUBalt, check the course notes to see if a course
is enhanced or take a look at the honors courses we offer each semester.
WHY UBALT IS FOR YOU
The Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area is home to countless arts organizations,
from large and established to small startups—not to mention government agencies like
the National Endowment for the Arts. Work with artists to understand and contribute
to the culture, and gain the knowledge and skills to help artists and arts organizations
thrive in a market-driven society—all while pursuing your own artistic endeavors.
In this Bachelor of Arts program, you’ll learn about the cultural, political and business
aspects of the arts while concentrating on the art that interests you most: from visual
art to creative writing to music.

When you graduate, you’ll be prepared to work for businesses, nonprofit organizations
and government agencies that deal in, represent or interact with artists and the arts—perhaps
in addition to managing your own freelance artistic career. You’ll also be well prepared
for graduate-level study in business and the arts.
You’ll take courses in:
arts production and performance
history, appreciation and analysis of the arts
government and business as they relate to the arts
technology’s impact on and importance to the arts.
With UBalt’s location between the Station North Arts and Entertainment District and
the Mount Vernon Cultural District, the neighborhood is your laboratory, and this
program will allow you opportunities to work with the city’s theaters, museums, galleries,
