Florida State University launches Festival of Creative Arts

The Florida State University Office of Research presents the Festival of the Creative Arts, a campus-wide collaborative event highlighting the diverse voices, talents and creativity of FSU faculty and students.

Departments from across campus will come together Oct. 6-9, to celebrate the innovation and diversity that results from combining various modes of expression and subjects together.

The festival will feature a wide array of interactive exhibits, including film screenings and discussions led by FSU professors and symposiums covering topics such as the future of arts education and the interconnectedness of science and writing.

"The festival is a celebration of the diversity of creative talent on campus," said Associate Professor of Organ Iain Quinn who organized the weekend's events. "With the participation of more than 300 students and faculty, we have six first performances, all sorts of documentary screenings, concerts, events for children, symposia, author readings, MagLab activities, the Marching Chiefs and the Circus. Our original concert piece "Premiere" includes school and community choirs. We very much want everyone in the community to explore the world of research and the arts at FSU."

All events are free and open to the public.
