TED has asked us organizers to design an event celebrating the theme of PLAY, which is a unique request as we usually come up with our own ideas as part of applying for a TEDx license. I am thrilled to give back to this community by curating and hosting this one-day celebration, featuring award-winning talent (8 talks) that will address this wonderful dimension of being alive - throughout our lives. See Sam Horn, Eric Byrd, Kelly Donahue, PhD, John Windmueller, PhD, Melanie Choukas-Bradley, Chris Combs, Irene Alby and Lysa Ratliff live and on stage - expressing themselves through the lens of play. A not-to-miss! BE A SPARK. Mix it up with 110 wise and curious attendees…! Treat yourself. Bring a friend (or more). Make this a perk for your team and buy them tickets - we all need to lighten up. ### Tickets can be purchased at TEDxBethesdaPlay.Eventbrite.com. They are non-refundable but transferable. All talks will be videotaped by Montgomery Community Media - and you can view them at the TEDxYouTube channel a few weeks after the program. See what catches your fancy as it happens. Being part of the live audience is the best way to go! FYI speakers are not paid and their talks must be new to the public. Partners cannot speak. Please consider helping to make this a success by serving in this capacity - I would love to feature you on social media, on-site and in each video as a sponsor. Email or call me with questions or ideas! |
