The concept of pattern in the arts provides artists with tools that can limit creativity or suggest new avenues for exploration. They can offer a maker innovative options to explore with their accustomed materials and techniques; at times present a designer a means of control; advance a range of new ornaments and motifs to work with; and impart a new understanding of the relation between functional and decorative form. This exhibition will look at the impact of pattern in the arts using the University Art Galleries collections.

The Immigration, Migration, & Ethnicity Working Group is proud to present, "Bridging the Gap between the Public and Academia: A Discussion on Public-Facing Humanities Research."

There will also be free food!

This session will provide participants with tangible activities and strategies to fold values discovery into their career development strategy, both in and out of the classroom.
