The new center, which opened to students at the beginning of the 2024 fall semester, is a state-of-the-art complex that fuses the arts, health sciences and technology in modern teaching environments tailored to stimulate creativity and innovation.

“Students will experience classroom settings that are tailored to their needs, designed for maximum learning and exchange … and where they can still find that out-of-the-way nook for a late-night study or a group practice session,” Radford University President Bret Danilowicz said at the sunny Thursday afternoon ceremony. “We are only just beginning to understand the Artis Center’s full potential, but the possibilities are endless.”
