Florida State University's Office of Research will host the Festival of the Creative Arts, a campuswide collaborative event highlighting the diverse voices, talents and creativity of FSU faculty and students throughout January and February.
Departments from across campus will celebrate the innovation and creative excellence that result from combining various modes of expression and subjects.
"The festival highlights many areas of interdisciplinary research across campus with faculty and students engaged in performances, symposia and talks," said Professor of Organ, Iain Quinn, festival director and FSU's Research Fellow in the arts and humanities. "Research is the core of our scholarly work, and we look forward to sharing new discoveries, multiple premieres and superb performances, all while enjoying great conversations with the larger community."
Several events are offered for K-12 students, including the popular "Sing with the Symphony" concert, in which the audience sings a new piece with an orchestra; FSU Math Fun Day; a sing-along screening of "The Wizard of Oz;" and events at the Challenger Learning Center of Tallahassee.
All events are free and open to the public.
