CES Fall Forum 2016

The burning questions for so many of us are: how do we view CES's impact and influence, and what's next for the ideas and the energy that have emerged from the Coalition's work? Come to listen, or share your experience, think about what you want to do individually and collaboratively, and discuss the ways that you envision coming together in the months and years to come. Ayla Gavins and Linda Nathan will lead this conversation.

Linda Nathan, EdD is a CES Executive Board member and is the first Executive Director of the Center for Artistry and Scholarship (CAS). She oversees key programs, including the Creative Learning Schools Project and the Perrone-Sizer Institute for Creative Leadership.
