Theme: Everyday Stories. Everyday Women

TEDxHampdenWomen is an event that explores the life and experiences of Baltimore women in the here and now, and how we build on our past to point us toward our future. And while our stories will continue, this event is a moment when we can share in those small victories, those teachable moments, those earth-shaking episodes that make us who we are today.
