The American University in Cairo's Department of the Arts and Tahrir Cultural Center both serve the University's overarching mission of advancing arts, education, and culture, as well as providing critical bridges of knowledge and understanding between Egypt and the world. Providing support in the curating of the Art D’Égypte lecture series, as well as hosting the series at our historic downtown campus cultural center, are practical examples of AUC's commitment to enhancing benefit and value on the cultural landscape.
