The Art of Neuroscience
Social event at
the Society for Neuroscience conference
Tuesday, October 8, 2024
6:45-8:45 pm
McCormick Place Convention Center
Neuroscientists and artists are invited to come together and celebrate neuroscience-inspired art!
We need you - yes, you! - to bring your artwork along to share in a friendly and inclusive environment. We welcome multiple formats of artwork from scientists, artists and those who would describe themselves as both!
If you don’t have artwork to bring, you are still welcome to come and view the artwork and mingle in an informal setting.
This is an accessible event. Please let us know in advance of the conference if you require any accommodations so that we can be sure to include them!
FAQs
-
You only have to register for the conference - there's no need to register for the social unless you plan on bringing artwork!

We cannot accept physical art from anyone who isn't attending in person, because we don't have the capacity to transport your art. But if you have digital art we can consider including it in our digital art display!

We are a small team, so please plan on bringing your own art. We will provide easels or table space, but you will need to install your own artwork. Also, we only have the room for two hours, so please plan on removing your art and taking it with you when you leave.
