The 4th New Eleusis Symposion convenes as a unique international stakeholders’ gathering dedicated to envisioning and initiating a NeuroArts Hub in Athens–Eleusis. Rooted in the historic landscape of Eleusis, it brings together a diverse network of scientists, artists, physicians, therapists, policymakers, educators, philosophers, and cultural leaders to explore the rapidly evolving field of neuroarts and neuroaesthetics. At the intersection of contemporary research and ancient practices, the gathering seeks to plant the seeds for a living meeting place where science, art, and ancestral wisdom converge in service of healing, transformation, and the future of humanity. Through dialogue, performance, and embodied experience, participants are invited to reconnect with the original purpose of art: to heal, to reveal, to connect, to transform.
This year, the symposion is organised by the World Human Forum in collaboration with the NeuroArts Blueprint Initiative, Your Brain on Art, the University Mental Health, Neurosciences and Precision Medicine Research Institute “Costas Stefanis”, the International Network of Ancient Asclepieia – Routes of Healing, the Region of Attica, the Schwarzman Centre and Columbia Global Athens.
