If you’ve ever forged a close bond with a younger person—a grandchild or a younger community member—you know firsthand that they teach you as much as you teach them. Numerous studies tell us that younger and older adults have a lot to learn from each other. At Mirabella at ASU, your knowledge and experience are assets to our community. You may find yourself mentoring students like the following residents:

Tempe is alive with the sound of music.
Artists-in-Residence: Four exceptional graduate students from the School of Music, Dance and Theatre within the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts are selected each year as Mirabella’s Artists-in-Residence. During this time, they will be your neighbors at Mirabella. In exchange, they will share their artistic talents in music, singing, and dancing through performances and interactive programming held throughout Mirabella.
And art and theatre, too.
Art Experiences: Mirabella sits directly next to thousands of square feet of gallery and classroom space as part of ASU's art school. You can browse the gallery or utilize the classroom space—or even show your artwork as a student registered for art classes. Residents receive access to the world-class ASU Art Museum as well as Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts events, exclusive presale access to seats for Broadway shows at Gammage Auditorium, and a special group rate for the “BEYOND” fine arts series.
