Welcome to The Arts at Delaware County Community College!
Now in its 17th season, the Arts at Delaware County Community College gives you exciting opportunities to experience the arts. The Live Music Series offers an impressive lineup of performances you won't want to miss. The Art Gallery currently hosts six visual art exhibitions showcasing the work of students as well as professional artists of national and international reputation. In addition to exhibitions, artists are periodically invited to hold lectures, collaborative projects, and workshops for the College community and the public. The Drama Department is committed to providing a comprehensive theatre education to our students while bringing the results to the community through a vibrant, thought-provoking production each semester. Our goal is to make the College a cultural destination and contribute to the arts environment available in the Philadelphia region.

When Nina enters her first air guitar competition, she thinks winning will be easy. But as she befriends a group of charismatic nerds all committed to becoming the next champion, she discovers that there’s more to this art form than playing pretend; it’s about finding yourself in your favorite songs, and performing with raw joy. A comedy about competition, completion, and finding the airness inside yourself.
