Fostering arts and culture in Flagstaff

We’re committed to bringing educational opportunities in the arts, culture, and history to those in our university and neighborhood community. That’s why we invest in world-class programs that are open to the public.

Remembering the past

The Martin-Springer Institute is a leading Holocaust research and remembrance institute. The Institute’s programming fosters understanding of the past, empathy in the present, and justice for the future.
