Catalyst Conversations is a 501c3 nonprofit launched by artist, curator and educator Deborah Davidson in 2012 to present provocative ideas that cut across art and science to an engaged public. As Catalyst Conversations has grown, we have held onto our core value of free and open access to ideas at the cutting edge of innovation in the arts and sciences. We present intimate and provocative conversations between artists, scientists, and the public. Sparking collaborations, synergy and the development of future projects with these communities and beyond.
