TEDxRVA

TEDxRVA The 5th annual event was held on June 23rd, 2017. In support of all things RVA. Learn more on tedxrva.com and follow us on twitter.

TEDxRVA made it’s debut in Richmond in 2013. Organizers literally built the stage at the Haxall Point Power Plant, and began with the apropos theme of create. In 2014, TEDxRVA hosted its second event, thinking about things differently and challenging preconceptions with the reflective theme, Re-. What better place to re-imagine than the November Theatre in Jackson Ward? In 2015, TEDxRVA came back

with a unique approach and the theme, UNCOMMON, at the historic Carpenter Theatre at Dominion Arts Center. With greater accessibility and seating from years past, and increased engagement within the greater Richmond community, TEDxRVA explored and celebrated the uncommon in the RVA community and beyond. ARTFUL was the theme for 2016, ARTFUL is a way of perceiving, a way of doing, an effect. Being artful means we are led by passion, we contribute value, and we bring about a healthier, more fulfilled society. We look forward to continuing the conversation in 2017 for our fifth year, discussing Change.

In honor of Black History Month, we created a playlist on YouTube of all of the amazing black speakers who have shared their profound and insightful thoughts on the TEDxRVA stage since 2013.

It is a good time to revisit all of these speaker's TEDxRVA talks. From local Richmonders, doing the important work here in our city, to prominent voices from all around the country, their words are more important and relevant NOW than ever before.

Over five years ago, volunteers, sponsors, and community partners came together around the belief that great ideas should be shared. TEDxRVA was organized around this core belief. Since 2013, we have organized over 29 events throughout Richmond, hosted 200 speakers and performers, have sparked conversations, and provided a platform for our community’s ideas worth spreading. It has been our hope that this work has made our community better and we are grateful to everyone who made it possible.

Thank you to TED and TEDx. Thank you to anyone who volunteered, even one minute of their time. Thank you to all of our awesome and dynamic speakers. Your talks are your legacy and ours. Thank you to all of our sponsors and community partners— without your support, none of this would have been possible. Lastly, thank you to the Richmond community for showing up to our events, time and time again.

As we take a break from producing events, we hope you will continue to use tedxrva.com as a resource and support the other TEDx events in our community.

With utmost respect and love,

The TEDxRVA Team
