Perspectives on creative arts in higher education

New Journal: HUB

“HUB is a peer-reviewed and open-access research journal for reporting on arts, design, and performing arts.

…HUB has been created to bridge a gap within the current cross-disciplinary space of arts and design research by providing a platform for exchanging ideas to foster new forms of inquiry and documentation of artistic research. As a result, HUB intends to provide an opportunity for discussion concerning the eclecticism of creative processes and methodologies and the educational impact of artistic research. At the same time, it seeks to stimulate the debate surrounding the social, cultural, and technological frames of art and design practices.”

Their first issue is out now.
