Rose State Live
Performing arts and entertainment are brought to Rose State College through the Rose State Live performance series. Delivering a diverse range of top regional and international talent to the college and surrounding communities, the Rose State Live performances began in 1999 shortly after the opening of the Communications Center. Since that time, Rose State has been proud to host many acclaimed artists and entertainers — from comedians like Margaret Cho to rockers like Joan Jett and everything in between. Each season brings a dynamic lineup of performances spanning a multitude of genres.
