CELEBRATING 30 YEARS
The Christel DeHaan Fine Arts Center
Over the past 30 years, the Christel DeHaan Fine Arts Center has become the heart of the arts at the University of Indianapolis. Built in 1994, the Fine Arts Center embodies Christel DeHaan’s commitment to the arts, education, and UIndy. DeHaan served on the University’s Board of Trustees from 1990 to 2008, spanning three presidencies, and was awarded an honorary doctorate in 1993. Today, the Fine Arts Center is home to the UIndy Departments of Music and Art & Design. Thanks to the Christel DeHaan Fine Arts Center Enhancement Fund, the Fine Arts Center will continue to shape the lives of UIndy students for generations to come. Established through a legacy grant from the Christel DeHaan Family Foundation, the fund ensures that the Fine Arts Center remains a vibrant hub for the arts at UIndy. By providing access to state-of-the-art tools, modern spaces, and cutting-edge technology, the fund will inspire students and foster their creative and professional growth for years to come.
200+ Music & art students study, rehearse, and create in the Christel DeHaan Fine Arts Center daily. 150 Music performances hosted each year in Ruth Lilly Performance Hall. 175 Exhibitions by regional, national, & international artists in the Christel DeHaan Fine Arts Center Gallery.
