Join us for a free livestream of TED Democracy Philadelphia: Founding Futures, a daylong symposium featuring more than 15 original TED Talks focused on the past, present and future of democracy.
Streaming live from Philadelphia leading up to America’s 250th birthday celebrations, this landmark event convenes bold thinkers and civic leaders to share ideas and solutions designed to inform and inspire.
Through a collaboration with Visit Philadelphia and the American Library Association, and sponsored by The Pew Charitable Trusts, libraries across the country are hosting satellite livestream events — expanding access to these critical conversations and fostering local engagement nationwide.
We’re proud to serve as a host site and bring this important civic moment to our local community. View the list of speakers.
Registration is required. Limited free parking is available underneath the Library at 800 East Broad Street. For more information, contact education@lva.virginia.gov.
