American Creativity Association International Conference 2007
March 21 - 23, 2007 in Austin, TX Pre-Conference Institutes on March 20
Creativity does not exist in a vacuum. While having specific meanings and nuances to those who are engaged in its study or its application, it is a term that requires greater definition and greater common understanding of its power to effect change and promote greater harmony throughout our national and international societies.
As we gather for the 2007 ACA International Conference, our theme will be Creativity@Work. Our vision is to explore all aspects of "creativity" as applied to the pragmatic challenges and opportunities we have to improve the quality of life of people everywhere -- including, but not limited to, business & industry, education, technology, leadership & culture, health care, and nonprofits. Bringing ideas to action, innovation to market, and creativity's role in learning will also be explored.
While proposals will be entertained on all aspects of the study and application of creativity, conference organizers have given special attention to those proposals that reflect the theme or show a correlation with the theme in their titles and session descriptions. Another area of great interest is "hot" and "upcoming" areas in which creativity is playing a key role, such as cmmunities of practice, creating conversations and collaboration, etc.
Conference Goal: to offer participants an opportunity to learn, observe, and engage in the craft of creativity. Presenters and participants will learn from each other through interacting and addressing real challenges and opportunities facing all sectors of our lives.
