Michigan Tech Visual and Performing Arts

Take a peek behind the curtain at how Huskies showcased their talent in our Visual and Performing Arts department’s production of “Sweeney Todd.”

It takes a lot of moving pieces – and hard-working people – to create a Michigan Tech Performance.

In front of the audience, performers and actors flex their creative muscles and build confidence. Behind the scenes, Huskies design and run lighting and sound cues, build sets, paint scenery, manage props, sew costumes, apply makeup, solve last-minute problems, and help keep actors on cue — and more!

We're excited to welcome you to the annual Don Keranen Jazz Festival tonight and tomorrow! 🎷🎶🪗 Before the concerts, take a moment to admire the vibrant new mural that brightens the McArdle Lobby!

"From Frida to Cy" mural was painted in the fall of 2023 by students in the Scenic Art class. Designed by Lisa Gordillo and Mary Kozmor, it incorporates input from students and community members about their perspectives on art and what it means to them. The mural draws inspiration from artists like Frida Kahlo, Edgar Degas, Agnes Martin, Cy Twombly, Andrea Ferrigno, Banksy, Olek, and Maurizio Cattelan.
