UMN Faculty Staff

We seek to enrich the campus experience, promote engagement beyond the classroom, develop and foster vitality in arts and culture and create opportunities for cross-disciplinary dialogue. We invite University of Minnesota faculty and staff to engage with Northrop through various programs, opportunities and discounts.

Northrop Across Campus

Northrop Across Campus is a program that encourages University of Minnesota faculty and staff to incorporate Northrop Season events into classroom discussion and exploration by providing complimentary tickets for entire UMN classes.

We believe that engaging with performances and cultural events can deepen curriculum in unique and exciting ways and can offer an experience unlike any other on campus. At a University that celebrates discovery, take time to discover dance, music and performing arts.

If you would like your class to receive access to an in-person, livestream or on-demand performance/film as part of Northrop Across Campus, please contact our Campus Engagement Team at nacampus@umn.edu. We are happy to walk you through the process, discuss the academic connections and help craft meaningful experiences for your students.
