Creative Professional Lecture Series


The Creative Professional Lecture Series invites arts-minded professionals to the UF School of Music to share how creativity played a role in their journey to success. 

Presented on select Fridays during the School of Music Convocation, this series aims to provide an opportunity for students to learn about professional development from people who have been successful through creative solutions, hard work, networking and maybe even a bit of luck.

With the changing landscape of the professional world, particularly for musicians and artists, these guest speakers will offer their advice and display the entrepreneurial benefits to fusing creativity with professionalism.
