Artists and scientists increasingly work together in fruitful collaborations. The combination of arts and science have proven to be very important for innovation. However in education science and art are still very much separated. Why does not every art school offer an art and science program? How can art schools and scientific institutions collaborate? Where and how is this happening internationally and how do art schools in the Netherlands relate to this?

note participants are invited, but if you interested and want to know what is discussed you're very welcome to walk in!
