The Foundation for the Philosophy of Creativity and the AIPCT are pleased to announce our third annual Spring Creativity Conference. Due to the pandemic, the conference will be held on-line.

This is also part of the on-going collaboration between Southern Illinois University Carbondale and the Institute of Philosophy, University of Warsaw, and the conference is co-sponsored by the University of Wrocław.
