Our 2011/12 per formance season finds us
reflecting on the mission and role of Carolina
Per forming Ar ts. Over the last year, we have
examined fundamental questions: How do we
succinctly define our role and mission? What is
carolina
success? Do you – our audience – feel engaged
and inspired? Are our per formers equally
engaged and inspired? What impact should we
be having on our university, our community and
beyond? Our exploration of these questions
has resulted in our new guiding principles and
mission and three simple words:
Create. Present. Connect.
