Creativity Forum

What tools can you use to increase your own creativity? How can you enhance innovation of your teams and organizations? And, what can you do to stimulate creative problem solving in your families and classrooms? In this interactive talk, Dr. Tina Seelig will discuss a collection of surprising, yet tangible things that you can do to boost creativity in individuals, groups, and organizations. She is the executive director for the Stanford Technology Ventures Program (STVP), the entrepreneurship center at Stanford University's School of Engineering. The Bay Area Discovery Museum's Creativity Forum advances the importance of cultivating creativity in children, and exemplifies how the Bay Area Discovery Museum is a critical resource for preparing children for the challenges of the 21st century. Previous event speakers have included authors Jonah Lehrer and Daniel Pink, Silicon Valley icon and philanthropist Steve Wozniak, and creativity in education leader Sir Ken Robinson. Funds raised from this event support the Museum's educational programs and exhibitions and outreach to communities where the need for creative development is most acute.
