Guest Artists

Carleton brings many guest artists to campus every academic year for concerts, lectures, and master classes.

Featured Artists

During the 2020–21 academic year, Carleton has been unable to present guest artists in our usual manner. In place of classroom visits, workshops, and public concerts, we are instead offering a series of virtual artist residencies.
Christopher U. Light Lectureship in Music

The Christopher U. Light Lectureship in Music was created in 1985 by Mr. Light, Carleton Class of 1958. Among his many interests, Mr. Light is a freelance writer, composer, record producer, and musician with interest in computers and music.
Laudie D. Porter Memorial Fund

The Laudie D. Porter Memorial Fund was established in 1986 by the family and friends of Laudie Porter, Assistant Professor of Flute at Carleton from 1968 until her death in 1986. The fund is used each year to bring to campus a distinguished performing or creative artist for a visit devoted both to performance and discussion.
Woodward Concert Series

Enid and Henry Woodward, two extraordinary musician-teachers, taught at Carleton College from 1942 to 1973. At their retirement, their many friends established an endowment fund in their honor to help support a concert each year by an outstanding musician or ensemble.
