"In October of 1976, the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance sponsored a symposium on a theme whose significance is too often ignored - the concerns shared in common by the arts, the humanities, the sciences, and technology. The Congress for Creative America, as the gathering was called, was conceived as a theatre of ideas. Its players were 22 eminent American men and women whose professional interests reflected a broad spectrum of creative endeavor; its scenario was one of open-ended exploration; and its aim was to foster mutual regard for the problems and pleasures faced by colleagues in neighboring disciplines. Participating in the Congress were: Maya Angelou, Alex Katz, Aaron Siskind, etc."--Publisher. VG+. light edge-wear, scuffs & marks to covers. clean interior. tight binding.
