Hopkins Center for the Arts

Visit

Welcome to the Hopkins Center for the Arts! The Hop is a multidisciplinary arts center presenting more than 500 events annually, serving both Dartmouth and the public. 

When it opened in 1962, the Hop was among the first university art centers in the country to bring music, theater, dance, and film programs together under a single roof. The expansion and renovation, which started in 2022, will support greater and more ambitious creation of cross-disciplinary work and meet the growing demand from students and faculty for artistic expression and experiences.

Opening in 2025, the Hop will house both new and reimagined spaces that are welcoming, versatile and accessible. These facilities will offer platforms for students, faculty and resident artists to experiment, forge connections and create adventurous work. During construction, the Hop has continued to provide vibrant programming in over 30 venues on campus and throughout the wider community.
