Summary/Abstract: A two-subjects webinar: information technology and arts with the participation of a lecturer from the Institute of Mathematics and Informatics and the Laboratory of Telematics of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences is presented. The article describes the concrete activities of the e-facilitator, the lecturer and the teachers in this specific scenario. In order to make it easier for the e-facilitator, a "webinar technical readiness check" form is prepared. Inside are listed possible difficulties when hosting the webinar during a class along with possible solutions. Some ideas and tasks are shared connecting artist Piet Mondrian’s style with studied mathematical objects along with the possibilities of using computer technologies for studying them in the context of STEAM. The article presents some results of the experiment. Emphasis is placed on the additional objectives achieved through the chosen form of training.
