About TUTTI Festival

Every two years — because it takes that long to organize something this fabulous — the Department of Music collaborates with musicians, composers, fine artists, dance artists, theatre, and creative people across genres to present the TUTTI New Arts Festival. This weeklong festival celebrates new music and art, bringing artists from across the country and across disciplines to Denison for a week of events, collaborations, and concerts.

“TUTTI” is a musical term, taken from the Italian for “all together,” representing the unusual depth and breadth of the artistic offerings of this event.
