We are all familiar with the phenomenon of only learning about the interesting work our colleague across the hall \u2013 or on the neighboring campus \u2013 is doing by hearing a talk at a national conference. Our hope is to build up sustainable conversations within the community through this event, to seed the growth of collaborative, project-based work in the arts and humanities, and foster reflection on the implications of this kind of work for teaching, research, and public arts and humanities efforts.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.chatfestival2012.org\/about\/organizing-committee\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Organizing Committee<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.chatfestival2012.org\/call-for-proposals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Call for Proposals<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.chatfestival2012.org\/about\/volunteer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Volunteer!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first CHAT Festival (February 2010) was hosted by the Institute for the Arts &amp; Humanities at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.\u00a0 At that time, Duke University and North Carolina State University agreed to host subsequent festivals, &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/chatfestival2012.org\/2012\/about\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"onecolumn-page.php","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-32","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chatfestival2012.org\/2012\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/32","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chatfestival2012.org\/2012\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chatfestival2012.org\/2012\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chatfestival2012.org\/2012\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chatfestival2012.org\/2012\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/chatfestival2012.org\/2012\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/32\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":543,"href":"https:\/\/chatfestival2012.org\/2012\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/32\/revisions\/543"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chatfestival2012.org\/2012\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
