On Wednesday, May 1, 2024, the TEDx Mountain Ave event will take place at Poudre High School. The event will give applicants the chance to speak in a TEDx talk. These speakers will be able to talk about an idea that they think is worth sharing that also matches the event’s theme of “Flourish.” Students have the chance to be included in this event.
This event includes speakers from the community, staff, professionals, and students who all have the opportunity to apply. This year applications are due November 4, and rehearsals take place April 30, 2024, the day before the event. People who have completed an application will be notified about their selection before November 28. Past student speakers have included Reece MacKinney and Emily Fox-Million who both spoke at the event in 2022.
Each speech should match the event’s theme in some way that can be explained in the application; it should be an idea worth sharing that speakers are able to go in-depth about with different methods that help to appeal to a large audience. The application process also includes certain tools that will help people shape their subjects into a good TEDx talk.
If you’re interested in speaking at this event or learning about the things a TEDx talk should include, you can submit your application and find that information here.
