The Henrietta Hankin Branch Library is excited to offer a monthly TEDx program to discuss “ideas worth spreading.” Join us for a community discussion about a curated selection of TED Talks. Please be prepared to have your camera and microphone on during the discussion to foster a sense of community during this virtual event.
The talks we will be discussing are: "Your Elusive Creative Genius" by Elizabeth Gilbert, "How Craving Attention Makes You Less Creative" by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, "How to Build Your Creative Confidence" by David Kelley, and "My Year of Saying Yes to Everything" by Shonda Rhimes. Watch these videos at www.ted.com and bring your thoughts to share!
Haven’t heard of TED Talks before? TED Talks are “short, powerful talks…that cover almost all topics – from science to business to global issues – in more than 110 languages.” TED is a nonprofit with a “global community, welcoming people from every discipline and culture who seek a deeper understanding of the world. [TED] believes passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and, ultimately, the world.” This program supports PA Forward's Civic and Social Literacy.
