The Vocal Cue
The J.T. & Margaret Talkington College of Visual & Performing Arts is a confidence-building, mind-expanding artistic journey with an infinite number of destinations.
Talkington grads are theatrical sound designers, independent filmmakers, and modern dance teachers. They're gallery owners, experimental sculptors, and Chicano art historians. They're symphony conductors, opera singers, and Broadway performers. Most importantly, our alumni lead rewarding lives marked by unceasing creativity, hard work, and honest expression—habits that they learned right here at Talkington.
Explore the journeys and experiences of Talkington students, faculty and alumni through The Vocal Cue podcast.
