2. a2ru National Conference: Land and Equity
Begins October 15, 2020
www.a2ru.org/events/2020-a2ru-annual-meeting/
As an a2ru partner institution, UGA will cover registration costs for a limited number of a2ru conference participants. If you are interested in attending please contact [log in to unmask] before registering.
The Alliance for the Arts in Research Universities (a2ru) invites you to the 2020 a2ru national conference, Land and Equity: The Art and Politics of Place, to be held online and hosted by the University of Wisconsin - Madison, October 15-30, 2020. All sessions will be held via Zoom. The a2ru National Conference is an opportunity for practitioners and researchers from across the higher education spectrum to share innovations and perspectives in the arts.
The 2020 theme, Land & Equity, considers how our work as artistic, scientific, and humanist researchers and educators is defined by the land on which we find ourselves, and asks who has access to that land and its resources? In turn, we will examine how our art, research, and teaching impacts the places and spaces in which we live and work, and discuss ways that we can use that work to advance more equitable access.
This year's conference features special registration pricing for this virtual experience. Attendees will also have the option to register for an unlimited session pass or for individual sessions or keynote presentations.
a2ru advances the full range of arts and design-integrative research, curricula, programs, and creative practice from across the disciplines in order to acknowledge, articulate, and expand the vital role of higher education in our global society. a2ru's work, in partnership with more than 35 research institutions, envisions a world in which universities -- students, faculty, and leaders -- explore, embed, and integrate the arts in everyday practice and research. The a2ru National Conference is an opportunity for practitioners and researchers from across the higher education spectrum to share innovations and perspectives in the arts.

By Christopher D. Ives, Rebecca Freeth, and Joern Fischer
Source:
https://nottingham-repository.worktribe.com/output/1829258/inside-out-sustainability-the-neglect-of-inner-worlds
"Sustainability science must take inner life more seriously by considering how language shapes and is shaped by paradigms about the world, prioritising enquiry into how spirituality, contemplation and sustainability transformation relate, and encouraging scholars and practitioners to intentionally cultivate their inner worlds to strengthen inner resources necessary for addressing sustainability challenges."

9. ArtPlace America Virtual Summit
October 26-30
https://artplacesummit.org
This year, ArtPlace America culminates a decade of work as part of an extraordinary community of artists, community developers, culture bearers, designers, government officials, philanthropists, and researchers who have come together from rural, suburban, Tribal, and urban communities across the United States.
We are coming together at a moment of nearly unprecedented crisis and opportunity: COVID-19, nationwide uprisings against police brutality and systemic racism, a looming election that will determine the direction, and possibly the fate, of our democracy. It's a crucial time for conversations on the issues facing our communities and our field, and a time to hear from national and local leaders of the ongoing effort to enlist arts and creativity in the work of making our communities healthier, safer, more joyful, and more just.
