Friends of Fine Arts


Our Friends of Fine Arts members are a network of supporters who believe in the vital role of the arts in The Citadel's mission to educate and develop our students to become principled leaders. Through annual donations at one of these giving levels, our members ensure that The Citadel Fine Arts program will provide meaningful opportunities to engage with our cadets and larger community at the intersection of the arts and national service.

This critical patronage allows our members to play an integral role during an exciting time of growth. While new facilities for the arts are constructed, the program’s operational framework will be strengthened to support a robust and creative calendar of opportunities set to open in fall 2023.
