Join 550 community members, 12 speakers, and 3 performers for one big day of ideas worth spreading. TEDxBozeman 2018 heads to The Commons at Baxter & Love on Saturday, April 28th beginning at 11am. This will mark TEDxBozeman’s seventh year helping bring new ideas, perspectives, and concepts to Southwest Montana. The theme for this year’s event is “Redefine.”
Our world is constantly in a state of redefinition, from how we communicate and work to how we eat and live. As we bring our perspective to a more local view, the 2018 event will explore how Montana’s traditions, land, and way of life are constantly changing to align with ever-changing expectations.
Embracing this change and growth in our local communities brings many opposing viewpoints and ideas to the table. While growth can be good, it does require some redefinition of who we are, how we live, and the choices we make.
