Hopkins Center Forum

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. 

The Hop is currently closed to the public as we warm up the building in preparation for our grand reopening in October 2025.

The renovated and expanded Hop 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. It 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.
