The Department of Art presents numerous exhibitions, presentations, and artist lectures from visiting artist in one of the three art galleries in the Humanities Building throughout the year. These are free and open to all students. The Department of Art also hosts an annual UWG student art exhibition every spring semester, which is open to all university students to submit art works.

The Department of Music offers students numerous opportunities to perform. Whether music majors or non-music majors, students participate in a wide range of music performance activities for university credit. Vocal ensembles include the Concert Choir, Chamber Singers, and Opera Workshop. The bands include the Marching Band, Basketball Band, Wind Ensemble, Symphonic Band, Jazz Ensemble, Jazz Combos, and a variety of small woodwind, brass, and percussion ensembles.
