The education president. The CEO president. How about the artist president? The Center for Teaching Excellence at Columbia College and the Chicago Teaching Artists Collective present The Politics of Creativity - Artists and Educators as Leaders

Do artists and other cultural workers have any special set of values, skills or experience that might make them excellent leaders in the public sector? Do creative professionals have any special civic obligations as citizen-creators?
An evening of conversation around the issues of creativity, power and leadership.
