Gainesville residents will have the chance this weekend to watch a TED talk in person rather than on a screen — a welcome change after more than a year of live events being adapted for viewers confined to their homes. Saturday, TEDxGainesville, a partnership between TED and members of the community, brings eight speakers to The Wooly Event Hall in downtown Gainesville. The event is limited to 100 attendees and tickets cost $50. Speakers will fly in from all over the country to give their take on the event’s theme, “grit.” This will be the second TEDx event to be locally organized in Gainesville, and it has seen a number of changes and postponements since its 2019 debut.
