The Arts Arena

The Arts Arena is a non-profit initiative for the creative and performing arts and issues of culture and society whose partnerships include Columbia Global Centers | Europe, the Curtis Institute of Music, the Yale School of Art, and the Yale School of Music.

Arts Arena events have taken place in Paris, London, and New York, and its publications are available internationally.
