The Foundation for the Philosophy of Creativity and the American Institute for Philosophical & Cultural Thought are pleased to announce our third annual Spring Creativity Conference.

This is also part of the on-going collaboration between Southern Illinois University Carbondale and the Department of Philosophy of Culture, Faculty of Philosophy, University of Warsaw. The conference is co-sponsored by Eidos. A Journal for Philosophy of Culture and the Centre for Philosophy of Culture of the Institute of Philosophy, University of Wrocław.
