UWM Voice Area

The UWM Voice Area is excited to welcome our 2026 Vilas Guest Artist-in-Residence, Sarah K. Brown, on March 5–6.

During her residency, Sarah will work closely with our students through a series of clinics, workshops, and masterclasses, sharing her expertise in vocal health, performance, and career sustainability.

Sarah is widely respected in the industry and has worked with principal performers from Broadway to Netflix, helping artists maintain healthy, sustainable voices while meeting the demanding realities of professional performance.

We are thrilled to bring an artist and specialist of her caliber to campus and look forward to two inspiring days of learning, exploration, and collaboration with our students.
