He returns for the last act TEDxBarlettaSalon today, Saturday 20 Aprilstarting from hours 18. The journey that began “Before dawn”, distorted by “Revelations”, will end in the moment that goes “Beyond the Twilight”. The new appointment will take place at Barletta “Hugo Simmen” tennis clubin Viale del Santuario 7. In case of rain, the event will move inside the structure.
“The initiative aims to once again offer an opportunity for dialogue, discussion and inspiration on issues that concern us all closely – explains Anna Paolillo, member of the TEDxBarletta event planning team. Ours is an invitation to look inside ourselves and ask ourselves what the dusk has represented in our personal journeys, what emotions have marked it, when and if fear, confusion and distrust have given way to the beauty of the desires and possibilities that the future can offer us”.
The TEDxSalon project follows a very specific route: the dissemination of ideas and life experiences that deserve to be told. The same principle that, in May 2023, characterized the TEDx Barletta with the great event: “Rumore” in Piazza D’Armi al Castello, as part of the US circuit born in 1984 in Silicon Valley with the acronym TED, Technology Entertainment Design. Here the proceedings of the TEDxBarlettaSalon will accompany the public to discover the theme of the 2024 main event.
“The image of twilight identifies itself in a transitory space in which ideas, projects, dreams come together – points out Gianfrancesca Distaso, member of the TEDxBarletta event planning team. Transition, metamorphosis and change are themes based on the concepts of hope and future, messages that we would like to guide the community towards the next main event. The guests of “Beyond twilight” will tell how it is possible to embrace change with confidence, energy and determination”.
