SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:TEDxRaleigh PLAY is an immersive experience designed to spark curiosity\, creativity\, and connection. \n\n\nInspired by the global TEDxPlay initiative\, this event explores the transformative power of play—not as something reserved for children\, but as a mindset that fuels innovation\, imagination\, learning\, and human connection. \nMusic\, Games\, Dance\, Discovery\, Social\, Art and so much fun! \nMORNING SESSION 11:00 – 2:00\nEVENING SESSION: 4:00-7:00\nLight apps and refreshments will be provided.\nCash/cc bar for adults available.\nProgram: \nRYAN ALLEN – Lead Wingman + Chief Experience Officer- Little Birdie Consulting \nMorning Session: Kid Focus\nCreate With JoyA hands on creating session where our younger audience is given guidance but limited directions as to how to make something out of scraps. (Example: we’re going to build a big bug museum. Every bug has some sort of each: body\, legs\, wings\, and eyes – but the rest is up to our creative kids. Once we craft our bugs\, each kid will share details about their bug on our museum tour.) \nAfternoon Session: Adult Focus \nCreative Sparks CardsEach participant gets 4 to 6 blank playing cards. Through a workshop style conversation\, they craft their own SPARK deck – a set of cards that help them get unstuck when things feel a little less than fun or playful. Each card is rooted in a principle of play and can be used for leaders and parents alike. \n#### \nThrough thought-provoking TEDx talks\, interactive experiences\, engaging activities\, and unexpected moments of discovery\, attendees will be invited to explore new ideas\, challenge assumptions\, and reconnect with their sense of wonder. \nPLAY celebrates the idea that some of life’s greatest breakthroughs happen when we experiment\, create\, collaborate\, and allow ourselves to be curious. Whether through hands-on activities\, artistic expression\, games\, movement\, conversation\, or inspiring stories\, TEDxRaleigh PLAY creates opportunities to experience ideas rather than simply hear them. \nJoin innovators\, creators\, leaders\, educators\, artists\, entrepreneurs\, and lifelong learners for a day filled with inspiration\, imagination\, and meaningful connections. \nCome ready to think differently.\nCome ready to engage.\nCome ready to PLAY. \nTEDxRaleigh PLAY — where ideas\, curiosity\, and creativity come to life.
