We created TEDxHarlem to exemplify the spirit and culture of this great community. There has been a resurgence of the Harlem community that will be reflected throughout this transformative day of brilliance, entertainment and progressiveness. It is our hope that by bringing together big thinkers and community members, we will drive true impact within Harlem and beyond.
Our theme, "Creating Waves" brings to life the notion that ideas have the ability to start at one point, spread and have impact somewhere else. The 20+ TEDxTalks selected embody this notion through various areas of interest: health and wellness, education, science, music, and civic engagement, to name a few.
