Leading innovation through immersive digital arts.

The Digital Arts Expo (DAX) is a two-day showcase of work that lives at the intersection of arts, technology, design, and interactivity created by Dartmouth students and alumni and esteemed guest artists. The event will be held in the Black Family Visual Arts Center Friday & Saturday, June 22 & 23. This year DAX will be presented in conjunction with SHIFT 2018, a vibrant and varied array of live arts that kick off summer at the Hopkins Center for the Arts. SHIFT will present works, both free and ticketed, that freshly consider music, drama and identity, bringing together diverse art forms and hearkening back to the creative disruption of the 1960s.
