a2ru Emerging Creatives Student Summit
March 14-17, 2024
https://a2ru.org/event/2024-emerging-creatives-student-summit-play-the-impact-of-play-on-how-we-create-and-relate-to-the-world/
As a member institution of the Alliance for the Arts in Research Universities (a2ru), UGA may nominate up to four student representatives. Please contact mark.callahan@uga.edu for more information about how to participate.
The 2024 Emerging Creatives Student Summit, “PLAY: The Impact of Play on How We Create and Relate to the World.” will be hosted at Rochester Institute of Technology on March 14-17. How are we–our mindsets, our approaches, our whole selves–different when we are at play? What do the structures and assumptions of board games, or team sports, or role-playing games imply about who we are, how we think, and how we relate to others? What about the world of unstructured play–of just “messing around”?
This year’s Emerging Creatives Student Summit on the theme of “Play” will bring together students from across the a2ru network to explore how these questions and more inform our interdisciplinary and collaborative work. The Rochester Institute of Technology will host Emerging Creatives at its Student Hall for Exploration and Development (SHED), a brand-new space that provides flexible spaces for technology, art, and design under one roof.
