The Fine Arts Parents Council is a special auxiliary group of the Fine Arts Advisory Council. This partnership provides Fine Arts parents with access to most of the benefits of the Advisory Council as well as special programming created just for them. This group of dedicated Fine Arts parents provides an essential perspective to college leadership and assists with fundraising, advocacy for the arts and arts education, and advising the dean of the college.
Under the umbrella of the Advisory Council, Fine Arts parents will be invited to the annual Advisory Council Fall Meeting, an all-day business meeting on the UT campus, and regional gatherings throughout the year. They also receive regular news and insights from Dean Rivera-Servera and Executive Director of Development Sondra Lomax.
Parents Council members pay annual dues of $1,500 per household which includes a $300 membership fee and at $1,200 tax-deductible donation to the Doty Society, the College of Fine Art’s primary source of unrestricted student support funds.
