The LMC supports the curricular needs of courses in the arts; individual student and faculty artists; co-curricular and extracurricular arts organizations on campus; and other campus artists with the approval of LMC staff. In addition, the LMC staff work with our campus and community partners to provide AV support for events that take place at the Logan Center.

All users, new or returning, must complete the annual General Access Orientation quiz to access creative production equipment and spaces. New users register for access to the Canvas Course here.
