Creativity Research in Focus: Looking Back & Moving Forward
Wednesday, April 24st, 2024
18:00-19:30 GMT (London, UK) • 1:00-1:30pm EST (North America, Eastern)
This event is special for us as we are celebrating World Creativity and Innovation Week! This month will be a little different, as we want to have an open conversation about the current state of creativity research and explore new paths or applications for its future development!
As ERCs, students, and young creatives we are the future of our field! We're excited to meet other creativity researchers AND creatives. What areas excite you the most? What curiosities do you have? What are your goals and passions in your own research or creative practices?
Participants are encouraged to pre-read at least one of the articles listed below and bring insights from their own experiences and backgrounds to contribute to the group discussion. The event will be a welcoming space for meaningful conversations, and we look forward to meeting all who would like to join in our World Creativity and Innovation Day celebration!
This meeting has passed, but we would love for you to join us next time!
