The purpose of ULTRA Club, founded in 1985, is to provide community, regional, and state support for students in Tarleton’s Department of Fine Arts. To contact ULTRA Club, send an email to [email protected] 

Through membership dues, gifts, and fundraising activities, the ULTRA Club funds student travel, guest artists, and scholarships. The ULTRA Club provides learning experiences that would not be possible without the support of our members. U.L.T.R.A. stands for Unlocking the Limits That Restrict Achievement and our members help to bridge the gap between what the university can do to educate students and the edge they need to compete in today’s world.

Play a part in the striking transformation of students into musicians, artists, actors, designers, teachers, and directors. Say to a Tarleton student, “You can do it, and I will help you.” Join ULTRA Club today!
