ABOUT
The Arts Matters conference aims to provide students from around Atlantic Canada with an opportunity to come to UNB and showcase their critical thinking, research, and creative works before a regional audience of their colleagues and peers. Arts Matters is an excellent opportunity to share your learning and research as well as hone your presentation skills, a critical asset in any career.

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
This year we are looking for presentations that explore four broad categories: Indigenization, nationalism, healthcare, and climate change. Have you completed research or a creative project exploring these topics? If so, submit an abstract to us! If you have a project that you would love to share but you don’t know if it fits into one of the topics above, send us your abstract regardless as we are looking to build a highly diverse program of presentations. We will be accepting abstracts and project descriptions from all social science, humanities, and arts programs. We are accepting abstracts in either French or English.
​
Thank you all for your submissions! We are reviewing them and will be in touch with you shortly!
​
If financial barriers impact your ability to attend Arts Matters, please contact engagearts@unb.ca.
​
*If you plan to present a creative project with a visual component (e.g. visual art project, digital art, etc), please include images of your work with your project description.
