Art in Academia (SARTS) | MN

The Society for the Arts in Religious and Theological Studies or "SARTS" had its charter meeting at the 2002 AAR/SBL (American Academy of Religion/Society of Biblical Literature) conference. The Society was organized to provide a forum for scholars and artists interested in the intersections between theology, religion, and the arts especially in the classroom. The goal of the Society is to attract consistent participation of a core group of artists and scholars of theology and religion in order to have dialogue about the theological and religious meaning of the arts, and the artistic/aesthetic dimension of theological and religious inquiry. SARTS is located at the United Theological Seminary in Minnesota.
