After four successful TEDxWilmette events sharing big ideas from over 25 different speakers, we are happy to continue connecting and keeping the conversation going with the TEDxWilmette community: Salons.  

 

Salons offer an opportunity to bring our community together more than once a year, and a chance to interact on a personal level with each other and our speakers. We hope you can join us!  

​

What are Salons?

Salons are TED-sanctioned events in a smaller group setting, each featuring the talk from one of our 2023 speakers, followed by a moderated discussion.  All of the 2023 speaker talks can be viewed on our Videos page.

​

When are the Salons?

We are planning six Salons for 2023-24. They will be held on the 4th Tuesday of the month starting in September from 7:15pm - 8:30pm, with a break in December.
