TEDxMileHigh: Wonder will feature three live sessions of speakers and an interactive exhibits lounge. The event will spark your imagination and stir your sense of adventure as Colorado's brightest thinkers and doers activate engagement with big ideas, from science and technology to education and design.

The Nov. 11 event will feature two CU Boulder affiliates, selected from an expansive pool of applicants: Professor of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Brian Toon and Growing Up Boulder Program Director Mara Mintzer.

Although speakers are not allowed to divulge the exact content of their speeches, Mintzer said her talk will be related to her current work at Growing Up Boulder, where she helps integrate children and youth voices into Boulder's city planning. Read more.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a self-organized program of local events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience.
