Call for Submissions: Ground Works 2025 Collection

Ground Works invites submissions for its 2025 collection! Submit your interdisciplinary arts research project for consideration—Stage 1 submissions received by January 27, 2025, will be prioritized.

Ground Works publishes peer-reviewed, arts-integrative research that bridges disciplines and advances understanding across fields. Eligible projects must demonstrate the integral role of the arts, interdisciplinary collaboration, and external recognition. Submissions are welcome in traditional and non-traditional formats, including performances, exhibitions, designs, and experimental approaches.

The submission process begins with a brief Stage 1 review, requiring a 250-word abstract, a relevance statement, and links to demonstrate impact. Successful submissions will showcase how the arts and other disciplines influence outcomes. Projects advancing to Stage 2 will submit a detailed narrative and media.

Explore the Ground Works Journal ( https://groundworks.a2ru.org) for examples of published projects, and visit the Guide for Submitters (https://groundworks.a2ru.org/submit) for details on the submission process.
