The Arts at Linfield
An original theatrical production. An exhibit showcasing student artists. Readings by internationally-known authors, who happen to teach on campus. Linfield’s flourishing arts community engages our on- and off-campus communities through new interpretations of classical pieces, as well as new original works.
Readings @ the Nick
In partnership with Linfield's English department and MacReads, the Readings @ the Nick series welcomes a handful of nationally acclaimed poets and writers to Linfield's McMinnville campus each academic year. Join us on Sept. 27 for a conversation and reading with Author Annie Lampman.
