DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to share with you the Call for Papers for the Tw
 entieth International Conference on the Arts in Society\, to be hosted by 
 the Center for the Arts in Society\, Carnegie Mellon University\, Pittsbur
 gh\, PA\, USA\, 28-30 May 2025.The&nbsp\;Twentieth&nbsp\;International Con
 ference on the Arts in Society&nbsp\;offers an interdisciplinary forum for
  discussion of the role of the arts in society. It is a place for critical
  engagement\, examination\, and experimentation\, developing ideas that co
 nnect the arts to their contexts in the world &ndash\; on stage\, in studi
 os and theaters\, in classrooms\, in museums and galleries\, on the street
 s and in communities. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can
  make linkages across disciplinary\, geographic\, and cultural boundaries.
  As a Research Network\, we are defined by our&nbsp\;scope and concerns&nb
 sp\;and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared&nbsp
 \;themes and tensions.Special Focus&ldquo\;The Art of Hospitality&rdquo\; 
 invites explorations of the possibilities and limits of hospitality\, belo
 nging\, and gathering through human and non-human entities\, mobile and fi
 xed bodies\, temporary and permanent spaces. The sites\, gestures\, acts\,
  and relationships of welcoming or gathering contain power dynamics that r
 eflect financial\, social\, political\, speculative\, or imagined currenci
 es\, often with burdens and expectations of reciprocity and gratitude. Sit
 es and gestures of hospitality can be found in life\, work\, art\, archite
 cture\, design\, theater\, performance\, leisure\, and study: these places
  and acts invite and even demand critique. &ldquo\;The Art of Hospitality&
 rdquo\; solicits contributions that interrogate these dynamics.Join us in 
 Pittsburgh\, the Steel City\, whose three rivers have hosted humans in fri
 endship and conflict for centuries\, and whose ongoing occupation of Indig
 enous land invites reflections on sovereignty and power.Learn more about t
 he conference themes and submit a proposal at&nbsp\;https://artsinsociety.
