Discussion for educators across disciplines to engage in envisioning the future. Panelists will converse about their integration of arts technology into their curricula and its impact on digitally native students.

Keynote Speaker: Claudia Jacques, doctoral candidate, Planetary Collegium, Plymouth, U.K.

Panelists: Professor Chris Kaczmarek, Fine Arts, Purchase College; Professor Deborah Krikun, Digital Arts, Westchester Community College; Dr. Richard S. Hyland, Global Business, Westchester Community College.

The E.A.T. Forum is being presented in conjunction with ArtsWestchester’s upcoming exhibition, STE(A)M: STEM + ART, which is a manifestation of the key concepts being discussed by the panel. Each piece in the show, which has been curated by Patricia Miranda, features the skillful pairing of arts and technology, an exploration of the innovation that is created when ART and the core academic subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics intersect.

Sponsored by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, which celebrates its 25th anniversary this year, the exhibition promises to carry on the tradition of innovation and collaboration of all disciplines.
