“The Difference That Makes a Difference” is the theme of discussion for the open mic night being presented by TEDxCharlottesville, an independently organized offshoot of the ever-popular TED Talks. Thirty participants have been chosen to give their best two-minute presentation. Contestants deliver from a variety of talents including spoken word, poetry, and dance, all in the style of progressive thinking that the TED organization is famous for. Following the speeches, the audience will vote for their favorite presentation, and the winner gets to present their work at Charlottesville’s very own TED Talk at the Paramount on November 15.
Monday 10/30 The Jefferson Theater, 110 East Main St. 7:30pm. www.TedxCharlottesville.com
