Student artistic collectives in Dresden, Zittau and Görlitz
Student life also takes place outside the lecture hall! Orchestras, choirs, big bands, dance and music groups of various genres, theater groups and a photography club all afford students an exciting and interesting break from university life. There are about 30 artistic collectives associated with universities that receive the support of Studentenwerk Dresden for event planning, promotion, provision of rehearsal spaces and project funding. This list also includes ensembles from post-student age groups whose artistic repertoire may be of interest.
Impact the cultural landscape of university life and expand its variety with new projects, together with other students. There are no limits to your creative potential. We are always on the lookout for up-and-coming artists!
