The community is invited to attend TEDxBountiful, a local gathering with live TED-like talks and performances planned and coordinated independently, on a community basis, by an organizer who has been granted a license from the TEDx organization. 

The event will be held March 22, at Mueller Park Jr. High, 955 E. 1800 South, Bountiful, at 6:30 p.m. TEDxBountiful features a variety of short talks by local speakers covering topics such as foster learning, inspiration and wonder with the goal to spark conversations. Talks will be filmed and later published by TEDx to be viewed on their platform.

The five speakers are:

• Logan Toone: Parenting 2.0: Raising the First Generation of AI-Integrated Youth

• Julie Laub: Lean Think: Revolutionizing Education by Doing Less

• Kate Olsen: The Power of Interdisciplinary Action in Advocacy

• Ray Ward: Opioid Epidemic: How We Got Here and How We Can Stop Making it Worse

• Kara Toone: Sealing Off Entry Points to Homelessness Through Public Education

Music will be provided by Bridging Betty, a local bluegrass/folk band and several artists’ work will be on display. Refreshments catered by SIPs.
