Call For Papers, Due Dec. 1: 'Claiming Creativity', Columbia College Chicago, April 21-24, 2010

Prof. Dominique-René de Lerma of Lawrence University Conservatory, Appleton, Wisconsin, sends us this reminder:
“CLAIMING CREATIVITY: Art Education in Cultural Transition
A Joint International Symposium presented by Columbia College Chicago in partnership with the European League of Institutes of the Arts, http://www.elia-artschools.org/

Chicago, USA, April 21-24, 2010
REMINDER: CALL FOR PAPERS AND PRESENTATIONS
We would like to remind you that the
DEADLINE for submissions of papers and presentations is DECEMBER 1, 2009.”

Claiming Creativity seeks to re-position creativity as a driver not only for our economies, but also for art making, for transformational processes, and for social and cultural development and change. The working assumption is that the vitality of our common future is linked tightly to creative practice in many forms. This symposium will place artists, designers, architects and other active 'creators' and those who teach in the creative disciplines squarely at the center of these important conversations along with leaders in industry and commerce who share an interest in the life of the imagination and its value to society.”
