"I feel it's my social responsibility to shine a light on areas that don't get seen. My personal feeling is that it's an artist's responsibility to be engaged with the culture. And when the culture is going through turmoil, I think an artist can't ignore that. I don't feel that every artist has to be politically engaged, but I can't imagine that you can be an active participant of this culture and not in some way reflect that in the work you are creating" Lynn Nottage

Excited to announce the winners of our 2020 Awards and Scholarships. Congratulations!

Take a look back at the Graduating Class of 2020's time at SUNY Cortland!
