About Bolz Center Founded in 1969, the Bolz Center for Arts Administration is now in its fourth decade of preparing administrative leaders of arts and culture. Housed in the University of Wisconsin-Madison School of Business, the Bolz Center combines an intensive focus on business disciplines, theory, and practical application, with a deep and dynamic exploration of mission-driven management. The primary activity of the Bolz Center is the MBA degree with a major in arts administration. This two-year, full-time degree program blends graduate coursework in business and arts administration, distinguished guest speakers, and real-world work experience. The unique combination of coursework, networking, and hands-on experience is designed to prepare graduates for the special challenges of working in arts and culture. The University of Wisconsin-Madison, and the city of Madison itself, provide the ideal setting for this intensive learning experience. UW-Madison is a world-class public university and a leader in research and teaching. With a student body of more than 40, 000, the campus also boasts a full range of cultural opportunities. The city of Madison has long been known as a jewel of the Midwest. Set among lakes and green-space, the city is home to a vibrant arts and culture scene, including the $100-million Overture Center for the Arts, now under construction and scheduled for completion in 2006. The Bolz Center is closely connected to the arts on campus and off, providing students with exceptional opportunities to learn, to experience, and to contribute their talents. The Bolz Center for Arts Administration is named in recognition of the generous support of Robert and John Bolz, and the Eugenie Mayer Bolz Family Foundation.
