Student-Led Collaborations (2018/19)
TheoArtistry's student-led partnerships focused on developing creative methodologies in theological research.
The 2018/9 partnerships emphasised process rather than product. Each partnership kept a record of their collaboration by creating a ‘scrapbook’ of notes, research and/or creative responses on their chosen theological theme. They rounded off their research by producing some form of critical reflection on their collaborative experience.
This TheoArtistry scheme was co-ordinated by Dr Rebekah Dyer and Dr Caleb Froehlich.

Poets' Scheme (2018)
In March 2018, six world-class poets gathered in St Andrews, Fife to reflect on selected biblical texts through poetry.
Partnering with ITIA theologians, the poets' creative work occurs in dialogue with biblical scholarship and theological research.
The Poets' Scheme takes place during StAnza, Scotland's International Poetry Festival. Each poet will present a draft of their new poem as part of the festival.

Composers' Scheme (2016-17)
In TheoArtistry’s inaugural project, six outstanding young composers were chosen to work with Sir James MacMillan, Dr George Corbett, and researchers from the School of Divinity at the University of St Andrews.
Through their work on this project, each composer explored theological and creative tensions on the theme of 'Annunciations,' providing new insights for theology and the arts.
