Arts Activities

Performing and visual arts come alive to enrich the UHD experience for students, the community, and UH-Downtown faculty and staff.

• The O'Kane Theatre is an intimate venue, seating no more than 100 people.  The stage is located within four feet of the audience, making attention to detail an important characteristic in every production.  This close proximity also gives the audience member a feeling of being directly involved in the action on stage.
  
  
• The O'Kane Gallery presents exhibitions throughout the year with artwork by professional and emerging artists. In addition, UHD art students and high schoolers are given an opportunity to see their work exhibited, perhaps for the first time, through exhibitions aimed at nurturing young artists.
  

In addition, the Wilhelmina Cullen Robertson Auditorium hosts a variety of performing artists in special presentations and concerts.
