This guide aims to empower students, ensuring you have what you need to be successful as artist-scholars engaged in research-creation at the University of Lethbridge, and beyond into the wider Alberta arts community. It is also designed to integrate with in-person events that help tangibly introduce artist-scholars to the resources mentioned here.

On Thursday, Nov 28, ASTeRIX is hosting a student engagement session that focuses on how the centre can better serve and represent student projects. This session will be casual and conversational in nature, and will include asking the following questions:
• What are your research interests and areas of artistic practice?
• What resources/equipment would be most valuable to support your student experience?
• What speakers/facilitators/artists would you most like to have visit Uleth to speak/present/etc (perhaps even in the Spring 2020 term)?
• What types of events/workshops/etc might ASTeRIX plan/provide that you would be interested in?
This 2-hour event will take place in the Switch Lab (W520A) on Thursday, November 28 from 4:00-6:00pm. Please drop in for as much or as little as you can. Please RSVP to asterix@uleth.ca

We will hold a 2-hour event in the Switch Lab (W520A) on Thursday, November 28. We will do our best to find a time that works well for everyone:
• Does 28 Nov. work for you?
• Are you free between 3-8pm and if yes, what is your availability during this this timeframe?
• We’ll provide some refreshments and probably some Pizza (Junction) – do you have any dietary restrictions?
Please RSVP to asterix@uleth.ca to let us know if you can make it!
Developing a multi-day workshop for interdisciplinary R-C in the spirt of the 2014 New Media Intersections with Evelyn Eastmond. Co-taught, collaboratively led, bringing into play present-day R-C projects and activities of the workshop leaders. Alternatively, directed by a prominent scholar-artist invited to the university by ASTERIX. The workshop can be a launchpad for an FFA inter-departmental, co-instructed, studio and project-based course on interactive art. Moreover, the workshop can include, for example, project development and dissemination strategies, leading students toward exhibiting at Crossing Boundaries 2020.
