TALK -
Talks are 90-minute electrifying, action-inspiring onstage programs, featuring four to six world class thought leaders who each present ideas on a single theme through either an individual presentation or a one-on-one conversation with a host.
Can storytelling reshape the narrative of a city? Is meditation the key to success? Can comedy help us heal? Creativity has the power to bring us closer together and is a reminder that we are a lot more alike than we are different. In this celebratory Saturday-night kickoff, we’ll dive into the revolutionary potential of mythological storytelling with Eve Ewing and Hebru Brantley, of Transcendental Meditation with David Lynch, and of self-creation with Bashir Salahuddin to rethink power and highlight meaningful connections that can reshape the future of Chicago—and the world.
