Date: Thursday, January 19
Location: Bolton Theater, Cleveland Playhouse
8500 Euclid Avenue
Time: 4 - 6 pm
Why is art so important to us? How was it possible for the human mind to evolve in a world without any form of art, only to achieve our remarkable capacity to create and enjoy art in so many different forms? How does technology affect the mind itself, so that it can determine a great deal about how we remember the past, visualize the future, and ultimately, construct our own reality? These are all important questions that we are just beginning to understand.
