2019 Young Adult Forum at the Aspen Ideas Festival
The Young Adult Forum welcomes youth between the ages of 14-22 for an interactive and inspiring afternoon that includes presentations, discussions, performances, panels, and opportunities to engage with other young people and world-class speakers from the Aspen Ideas Festival stage. The Forum takes place on Wednesday, June 26, from 4 - 6:30 pm. The event explores big questions while empowering youth to build relationships and network with one another as well as with known advocates who have turned their passions into purpose.
This year, attendees are also invited to also attend Common Presents: Let Love — An Expression of Art, Words, and Song, following the Forum at the Harris Concert Hall on the Aspen Meadows campus. In a theatrical, musical, audience-engaging production, Common presents messages of love, forgiveness, healing, and celebration, in his own unique style. Inspired by his very personal memoir, Let Love Have the Last Word, Common takes you on his journey from the opening monologue to a live band concert. This limited-run show is an inspiring, emotional and uplifting experience you don’t want to miss.
