The symposium inaugurates the Centre for Practice as Research in the Arts at University of Chester

Practice as research has become one of the most important areas of development in the creative arts;
the Centre aims to support and develop practice-based research by providing an intellectual, creative and organisational resource for its own researchers, and a venue for the exchange of ideas and dialogue with individuals and institutions at local, regional, national, and international level

The symposium will address the contextualisation of practice as research at a number of levels;

• as an area of investigation in its own right;
• as an issue affecting the work of practitioners
• and academics in various subject areas;
• and as a growing part of postgraduate research
• in the creative and performing arts
