TED Talks - Brown Bag Series
2018-02-08 11:30 - 13:00 (America/Chicago) | West 7th Community Center, 265 Oneida Street, St. Paul, MN, 55102, United States
Keystone’s senior program is offering a new TED Talks series. Everyone is welcome to join us for this free event.
TED is a nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less). TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, and today covers almost all topics — from science to business to global issues.
Each month we will watch a collection of pre-selected TED talk videos with a common theme and then have time for discussion. Feel free to bring a brown bag lunch to enjoy while we watch and discuss the videos.
February’s TED Talks theme is: Love. The videos will discuss the many faces of love and its effect on us.

With your footsteps, you are keeping our three food shelves and our mobile food shelf stocked with healthy food for neighbors in need in Ramsey County who turn to Keystone. You can help youth, seniors and families access a wide variety of services that to help them get through tough times and ultimately help them be self-sufficient, stable and successful.
