Folkwang Alumni

Without our “old” students, the Folkwang alumni, we would not be what we are today – namely the Folkwang University for music, theatre, dance, design and academic studies. The founding of “Folkwang Alumni” in 2004 meant the creation of a network that serves to facilitate communication and exchange between graduates old and new, between people with experience and people just starting out in the arts world, between people who are established and those who are still finding their way – and last but not least, to enable former classmates and colleagues to meet again. Four years after the founding of Folkwang Alumni more than 1800 former students have registered. On the following pages you can discover how to become a member, why we need your help, when the next meeting will take place and what else we have to offer.
