The arts have the potential to unify. They can speak in many languages without a translator. The arts do not discriminate. The arts can lift us all up. ----Barbara Jordan, Former Texas Congresswoman

The Cultural Arts Series began as a way to bring performing artists and visual artists to the campus throughout the year for both the East Central Community College campus and the local communities.
