Know Someone We Should Profile?

We’re always looking to expand our reach to connect as many Arts alums as possible. If you or someone you know has not yet been interviewed on DeacLink, get in touch!

Join our LinkedIn Group

The purpose of this group is to network with Wake Forest University alumni who are connected to the Arts. Did you perform on campus? Do you collect art? Do you fundraise for an arts organization? We are constantly amazed by where our students go after they graduate. Join the network.
