The Drawing Across X Along X Between University Borders Conference focuses on drawing-based collaborations between art, science and society to tackle artistic, educational and societal challenges. We invite artists, scientists, educators, students, university policymakers and persons interested in inter-transdisciplinary practices across academia, research, and society to join the discussion in three possible directions:

DRAWING ACROSS
In what ways are drawing practitioners challenging the disciplinary strictures that often constrain thinking and acting across divergent areas in the university?

DRAWING ALONG
How can drawing activities be an ally of STEM education in the university, and how can STEM practices be an ally of drawing education?

DRAWING BETWEEN
How can drawing-based practices and STEM disciplines collaborate to address the urgency of societal challenges?
