You will see the original plans for TEDxRedMountain below. The tornado that ravage our city and our sister community on April 27 changed everything. Our team decided that, even though we only had three weeks to do it, we would re-build our event with a complete focus on the impact of and recovery from this disaster. Our theme, Forge On, embodied the indomitable spirit of our community.
