Creativity@Emerson

Creativity is a process. It’s problem solving. It’s a mindset that can be cultivated and mastered. Everyone on this campus is a creative. We work with our minds and bodies and develop creative thinking skills that last a lifetime. At Emerson, creativity is collaboration. We don’t do it alone. Failure isn’t final. It’s feedback. We don’t just create. We exercise creative expression. Creativity takes discipline and we all have to put in the work. At Emerson, creativity isn’t just a core value. It’s our calling. We’re an innovative community of communicators and storytellers and together we’re creating extraordinary stories that transform the world.

Creativity@Emerson is dedicated to emboldening and elevating creativity at Emerson College and beyond. Building on Emerson’s reputation for creative excellence, Creativity@Emerson draws upon faculty expertise, immersive and innovative learning environments, and public engagement opportunities to enhance and expand students’ educational journeys, preparing them to thrive as innovative thinkers, problem-solvers, storytellers, and creators in a dynamic and ever-changing world.

Emersonian Creativity


At Emerson, creativity goes far beyond “using imagination or original ideas to produce art.” For Emersonians, creativity is the backbone of everything we do. Whether it’s in the arts, business, communication, or even speech pathology, creative thinking is woven into the way our community learns, collaborates, and makes an impact.
