This presentation will explore the superpowers of curiosity and the ability of curiosity to forge mastery and ignite thriving communities.

Amy Davis-Bruner has lived in Walla Walla for 10 years and says it was curiosity that brought her here. She helped create Community Learning Opportunities, has been involved with city government and has networked with such community organizations as the YMCA, Whitman, and Walla Walla Parks and Recreations to connect college students as mentors with young learners. She says she believes that "the key to a thriving world lies in each one of us identifying and acting through curiosity towards mastery."

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
