The Gertrude Stein Repertory Theatre (doing business as the Learning World Institute), in collaboration with informal science education venues, universities, and corporations in Chicago, San Diego, and Washington, D.C., is organizing a set of three professional conferences and a web site to encourage stronger national and local communities of practice around the application of arts-based learning (ABL) to informal science education. Arts-based learning is the instrumental use of artistic skills, processes, and experiences to foster learning in non-artistic disciplines. The goal is to apply ABL to informal science education in ways that can foster the acquisition of STEM skills that are important in today's workforce. The set of conferences, with a total attendance of 750, will focus on an understanding of current and potential ABL applications to workforce skill development, opportunities to practice ABL directly, and creation of a research agenda on the impact of ABL on science education. The web site (funded through other sources) will help conference attendees prepare for the workshops, provide opportunities for networking, aggregate resources, and host the research agenda.

格特鲁德·斯坦剧团（以“学习世界研究所”的形式开展业务）与芝加哥、圣地亚哥和华盛顿特区的非正式科学教育场所、大学和公司合作，正在组织三次专业会议和一个网站，以鼓励围绕将基于艺术的学习（ABL）应用于非正式科学教育的国家和地方实践社区更加强大。以艺术为基础的学习是利用艺术技能、过程和经验来促进非艺术学科的学习。目标是将ABL应用于非正式科学教育，以促进获得对当今劳动力至关重要的STEM技能。这一系列会议共有750人参加，将重点讨论ABL在劳动力技能发展中的当前和潜在应用，直接实践ABL的机会，以及建立ABL对科学教育影响的研究议程。该网站（由其他来源资助）将帮助与会者为研讨会做准备，提供联网的机会，聚集资源，并主持研究议程。
