The UMass Dartmouth chapter of the National Art Education Association Pre-Service Division, and Student Activities are sponsoring a film screening of the documentary, From Nothing, Something. The film profiles creative thinkers across a variety of disciplines and finds common methods, habits, mindsets and neuroses that help bring breakthrough ideas into being. This is a thoughtful, intimate, often funny look at the creative process– straight from the brains of our culture’s most accomplished and inspiring talents. The film explores the notion that everyone had ideas, and inquires about where these ideas originate, how they are sorted, and why we invest hope and energy into making things.

Upon completion of the film, the creator, Tim Cawley will be answering questions and leading an informal discussion about the creative process.

The film screening will begin at 7pm on Friday October 17th, in CVPA 153. The film features:

  • Sara Quin – Singer/Songwriter
    Tom Perrotta- Novelist
    Neville Paige- Creative Designer
    Mary Sue Milliken & Susan Feniger- Chefs
