Rooted in the deep traditions of the arts as a powerful means for social change, Arts as Civic Engagement is a platform for students to immerse in arts-based community engagement. ACE Fellows are a cohort within the St. Louis Fellows program.

Launched in 2018, the program supports four Washington University undergraduate students in at regional arts organizations, including the Contemporary Art Museum (CAM), Shakespeare Festival of St. Louis, The Griot Museum for Black History, and COCA – The Center of Creative Arts.

Arts as Civic Engagement is made possible by generous gifts from Sally Schnuck, OT ’78, Terry Schnuck, PMBA ’80, John Beuerlein, MBA ’77, and Crystal Beuerlein.
