Event

OpenARC will be hosting a Spring Festival of the Arts and Humanities. The Festival will celebrate the best in research, broadcast, knowledge exchange and impact in the School of Arts and Humanities.

OpenARC will be running an external funding workshop for colleagues at all career stages.

This event brings together researchers, writers and heritage industry experts to explore the relationships between letters and literature across time and space.

The topic of how to ‘treat’ heritage (decisions about conservation, restoration, or reconstruction) is currently the subject of heated debate. At least some of the principles underlying these decisions are aesthetic; the history of the discussion, going back to the Renaissance, features work from thinkers and practitioners such as Petrarch, Alberti, Viollet-le-Duc, Morris, Ruskin, and Riegl.

Co-hosted by Creative Interactions and Contemporary Cultures of Writing at The Open University, together with colleagues from Falmouth University and Northwestern University in Qatar, this event will be held at the Foundling Museum in London on the 20th and 21st of June, with online pre-sessions on the 10th and 19th of June. Registration is now open. Spaces are free, but limited in person.

A one-day symposium on the ways writers create worlds, real and imagined, featuring award winning novelists and non-fiction writers.
