Developing Creativity: American Experience based on Interview with Jennifer Lehe, the Manager of Strategic Partnerships, the Centerfor Creativity at the Columbus Museum of Art

Summary/Abstract: In February 2016, I met at the Columbus Museum of Art (Columbus, Ohio, USA) with Jennifer Lehe, the Manager of Strategic Partnerships, Learning Department of the Columbus Museum of Art who gave me an interview on the implementation of projects related to creative thinking and activities of children and young people attending museum extra-curricular programs. The main goals of the Center for Creativity at CMA are the design of the “ecosystem”; (the term used by Jennifer Lehe), such as tasks, which correspond to the complex creative process of the artist. The Creativity Center builds its projects on the basis of scientific concepts. Diversity and creativity form the basis for better understanding of multicultural world, its similarities and differences. The Center provides also the basis for building the predisposition of the discoverer – scientist, who strives to describe new components of creativity, while investigating this process. It creates the ecosystem with community consisting of children, young people, immigrants, scientists representing various disciplines, artists, animators as well as creative but unrelated to art people. Connected elements of this ecosystem form a complementary whole, which is launched towards development of creativity.
