Colleges Join to Offer Students "Career in the Arts"

Posted on Monday, March 21, 2005

Forty-three colleges and universities in the WestPACS Consortium have joined to sponsor a "Career in the Arts" Wednesday, April 6, from 3:30-7:30 p.m. at the Regional Learning Alliance in Cranberry Township.

"If you are planning a career in the arts, you should not miss this opportunity to meet with professionals in the field," said Jackie Meade, director of the Westminster College Career Center. "Twenty-eight professionals from the arts, including artists, writers, broadcasters, film producers, and more will serve on six panels to share insight into their career fields. Students can choose two of the six panels, but will also hear keynote speaker Rick Sebak, a nationally-recognized producer of documentaries from WQED."

Students can pre-register for $5 before April 1, or pay the walk-in fee of $10. Registration forms are available at the Westminster College Career Center.
