STEM skills and spark creativity in the 21st-Century American workforce.

These 1½ -day conferences will showcase interdisciplinary methods and

techniques used by educators and artists, share current research into the

impact of arts-based approaches on science education, and explore the

connection between the arts and American economic competitiveness.
