Creativity and vision are essential across disciplines, shaping both artistic and scientific endeavors. "Art $\&$ Science across Italy", a project led by the Italian National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN) in collaboration with CERN, cultivates a broad perspective in high-school students to disseminate scientific knowledge. Embracing the STEAM field, it integrates STEM and arts without privileging one over the other. Throughout the project, high school students attend scientific seminars and subsequently, drawing inspiration from science, create their own artworks. These artworks are then showcased in local and national art exhibitions. In the fourth edition (2022-2024), more than 7000 students produced 1000 artworks showcased in 20 exhibitions. This paper outlines the project, methodology, and key results.
