UC Irvine is reimagining creativity for the 21st century — and cutting-edge arts-based research is central to our vision. UCI’s Claire Trevor School of the Arts is widely recognized for the work of its four acclaimed departments: Art, Dance, Drama and Music. The Institute for 21st Century Creativity (21C) expands upon these traditional areas of excellence through experimental approaches that interconnect art, technology and design, cultivating transdisciplinary research and creative projects in which faculty and students re-imagine the world afresh with each iteration.
