While research affirms the value of the arts to learning, healing, cultivating empathy, and participating in democratic communities, rapidly evolving pressures in higher education today place arts programs at risk.

Join colleagues in raising questions, exchanging ideas, and considering possibilities—as we seek to imagine things otherwise.
