Just spoke at TEDx in Jacksonville. An amazing crowd, and a beautifully organized event. So great to have the opportunity to talk about how important it it to transform music education in a way that is far more accessible and relevant to our emerging technologically-driven future.

TEDxJacksonville owes a huge debt of gratitude to Stacey Steiner (@starpulp) of Prattify for stepping up to support our team on less than 24 hours notice. @JasonPratt, founder and CEO of Prattify, is a regular attendee of TEDx events. As he already knows, Stacey is a gem and this community is lucky to have her.

We appreciate the incredible speakers and performers who worked for months to deliver on stage this weekend at TEDxJacksonville 2023 Human/Nature. The conference presented sensational talks and performances — and the event would not have been possible without our generous partners, our hard-working volunteers, and the hundreds of attendees who valued a day devoted to ideas, connections, solutions, and action. #TEDxJAX

We are musical strangers, so say hello and make a beat!! Also, representation matters. Always. Nice work today, @TEDxJAX team! Y’all did good. #Duval #TedXJax PS: @REI Jacksonville team… thanks for being there with the incredible camp 🏕️ chill spot.

As a society we have to recognize there are plenty of seats at the table of leadership. We need to encourage young women, young women of color to take on that leadership role. Dr. Diana Greene #TEDxJAX

Studies show that when black students have at least a black teacher for one year they are less likely to drop out of school. Representation matters. Dr. Diana Greene #TEDxJAX

#EnsuringLastingSmiles Act (ELSA) will ensure health plans do not deny or delay medically necessary treatments for people with cleft & craniofacial anomalies ensuring they have continued support for medical and dental needs beyond childhood. Iva Ballou #TEDxJAX

Since 2012, our all-volunteer team has embraced the challenge of bringing the TEDx experience to Jacksonville because we believe our city’s greatest strengths are the dreams and ideas of its citizenry. #TEDxJAX

A study showed when people learn music, they become more ambitious, more conscientious, more open. The study showed learning music impacts cognitive skills and non-cognitive skills more than 2x as much as sports and other forms of art. Wow! 🤯 @theneilmoore #TEDxJAX

Jacksonville will run out of undeveloped space in ~80 yrs if Jacksonville continues on the current path of growth. The good news is that the future doesn't have to look like this by utilizing science-based resilience planning. @A_Coglianese #TEDxJAX
