THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON THE ARTS IN SOCIETY

The University of  Edinburgh, Scotland, 15-18 August 2006                                                                                      http://www.Arts-Conference.com

To be held in conjunction with the Edinburgh International Arts
Festivals, the conference will include leading artists, arts
practitioners and theorists through paper presentations, workshops and
colloquia. The conference venue, the University of Edinburgh, is
located near the heart of the various Edinburgh Festival activities.
 
I would particularly like to invite you to respond to the conference
call for papers and presentations. Presenters may choose to submit
written papers for publication before or after the conference in the
refereed International Journal of the Arts in Society, a new journal
commencing publication in 2006. If you are unable to attend the
conference in person, virtual registrations are also available which
allow you to submit a paper for review and possible publication in the
journal, and provide you with access to the electronic version of the
conference proceedings.
 
Full details of the conference, including an online call for
presentations form, are to be found at the conference website. We
encourage innovative presentation formats as well as academic papers.
The first call for proposals (a title and short abstract) closes on 30
November 2005.
 
We look forward to receiving your proposals and hope you will be able
to join us in Edinburgh in 2006.
