Why bother with the Arts?

All welcome! Culture Cafe event, Wednesday 26 March, 2-5pm, Students Union Bar 3, building 42.  Free admission.

Well-grounded theories are available to explain what people want from the arts, why different groups of people like different sorts of art and why attitudes to unfamiliar art vary so widely.

In search of new ways to encourage arts participation across the university, the Culture Cafe hosts a debate tackling fundamental questions about the meaning and social function of art, with speakers from Economics, Philosophy, Politics, Psychology, Sociology and Social Policy. Please come along and join the conversation – the Culture Café is for staff and students, and for all disciplines to contribute.

You can book ahead via The Nuffield Theatre Box Office, tel: 023 8067 1771 email: [email protected].

Pre-booking is not essential – you can turn up on the day.
