TEDxRockhill

Smokescreens: things aren’t as they seem.

We’ve been taught to look at the world through a fixed, cloudy lens. Sometimes, we don’t see the world for what it is: because the reality is unusual, uncomfortable, or brilliantly unique. It’s easier to hide that reality behind a smokescreen of half-truths and lies than to embrace it. Break through the smoke. Shed some light.

TEDxRockhill is the newest grassroots conference in KC being curated by incredible and passionate 20-something year olds, featuring young entrepreneurs and brilliant ideas. We’re small, close-knit, and we’re mighty. Our goal is to bring together bright, young minds to give talks that are idea-focused, and on a wide range of subjects, to foster learning, inspiration and wonder – and provoke conversations that matter.

TEDxRockhill is an independently organized event from TED: the global conference for idea-sharing and innovation.
