In the words of Henry David Thoreau, “The world is but a canvas for our imagination.” How we express our imagination varies, but it is most often demonstrated through the arts. Here at UT, students have numerous opportunities to engage with the arts — through music, photography and fashion. This Forum issue highlights two diverse artistic initiatives currently on campus. One is the music of Pakistani students from the National Academy of Performing Arts here through a grant from the State Department and the South Asia Institute. The other is the work of current textiles and apparel students in preparation for the UT Fusion Fashion Show to be put on by the University Fashion Group on April 23.
