A Place Where You Should Try Everything
Acclaimed artists reflect on how they discovered their career path at the Hop—and why the arts remain fundamental to the Dartmouth experience.
Dartmouth’s Hopkins Center for the Arts has always been a place where creativity is encouraged for all students and community members. As the campus prepares for its grand reopening this fall, watch several prominent alumni with successful careers in the arts reaffirm the Hop’s role as a space where everyone is encouraged to explore, experiment, and discover new artistic passions.
The Hop’s transformation brings state-of-the-art performance venues, dynamic gathering spaces, and enhanced resources designed to make artistic exploration more accessible than ever. Whether they are an experienced creative or someone stepping into an artistic space for the first time, the Hop is designed to inspire and support every creative journey.
This revitalization honors the Hop's legacy as the center of the arts at Dartmouth while looking toward the future. It offers a place where the community can collaborate, innovate, and express themselves better than ever.
The reimagined Hopkins Center for the Arts will fully reopen in fall 2025.
