OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Participatory art practice and community engagement has featured centrally in art practice and theory since the 1990s. While many have argued that participatory practices contribute to fostering democratic citizenship, critics have questioned whether participants experience themselves as instrumentalised by participatory practices. This conference forms part of the ARTIS Horizon 2020 consortium grant investigating into the transformative potential of the arts. In order to do so, we invite scholars from a broad range of disciplines, such as the arts, political science, sociology and cultural studies.
