FormatYouth
Please join us for a fun afternoon at Marsh Creek 6th Grade Center to celebrate TED's International Youth Day. This event will feature live speakers, live stream of TED Youth Day, and interactive activities. Parents and students are welcome. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized (subject to certain rules and regulations).
