**About **_No Prior Art_**
**_ No Prior Art_** celebrates human creativity by exploring the process of invention as a key feature in artistic and scientific advances.

The scale ranges from simple film screenings, to creating program kits that can be loaned out to branch libraries, to helping produce two to three larger festival-type engagements, all resulting in a dynamic series that seeks to engage diverse audiences. **_No Prior Art_** is part of the Getty Foundation’s regionwide initiative, **_PST ART: Art & Science Collide_**.
