Want to witness Black talent and excellence at Illinois? Join us at StartSTRONG to attend our annual Cotton Club performance!  This show features our students’ musical, spoken word, dance, and theatrical talents.  During the day, you'll also have a chance to tour our award-winning Bruce D. Nesbitt African American Cultural Center, make valuable connections with current students, and learn more about the admissions process. Cotton Club has been a staple on our campus since the 1980s—you won't want to miss it!

If you have any questions, contact us at 217.333.0302.  We look forward to seeing you on campus!
