Welcome to the Michigan Creativity Association!

 

Destination ImagiNation (DI) is an extraordinary extra-curricular activity in which students work in teams to develop creative solutions to complex challenges. Teams present solutions at sanctioned tournaments, where they display creativity, problem-solving, and teamwork skills that they have developed as a team.

Participants gain more than just basic knowledge and skills—they learn to unleash their imaginations and take unique approaches to problem solving.
