Thomas Frank: the Creativity Con
About
Writer Thomas Frank discusses his book The Creativity Con, which traces the cult of innovation from Cold War anxieties through Silicon Valley and urban planning and argues it has been used to deepen class divides while starving real creativity. The talk starts at 7:30pm in the Great Hall at Town Hall Seattle, 1119 8th Ave, near Symphony Station on the 1 Line and Metro route 2. Tickets are $10 – $35, with an optional book add-on.
