The Seventeenth International Conference on the Arts in Society offers an interdisciplinary forum for discussion of the role of the arts in society. It is a place for critical engagement, examination and experimentation, developing ideas that connect the arts to their contexts in the world – on stage, in studios and theaters, in classrooms, in museums and galleries, on the streets and in communities We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries. As a Research Network we are defined by our scope and concerns and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared themes and tensions.
The Seventeenth International Conference on the Arts in Society features research addressing the following annual themes and special focus.
We are offering a blended conference format with session types explicitly designed to make the most of both online and in-person social knowledge processes.

For over 30 years, Common Ground has been invested in developing technologies that seek to break down barriers of access in scholarly communication. In each phase, we’ve built media platforms to support spaces for interdisciplinary dialogue, before such approaches were in vogue; connected international voices, when disciplines were too often isolated in national silos; and supported an agenda of access and equality, by offering pathways and opportunities for diverse voices.
And now we propose another kind of intervention -- a scholarly communication infrastructure for a blended future.
With this step-by-step guide, we walk you through the new phases pre/during/post-conference to ensure you have a productive blended conference.
We are working to change the way in which knowledge is produced, validated, and shared within member-based Research Networks.
The Arts in Society Journal Collection and Book Imprint offer pathways to transform your presentation into formal research objects. We also support a number of affordable Open Access pathways to allow maximum flexibility to support principles of open research, in a sustainable manner.
