FREE TEDxPhoenixville Salon Tonight

VW Bus by Lee Stoetzel

The TEDxPhoenixville organizing committee has announced that their April TEDTalks Salon will take place in the Colonial’s 650-seat main auditorium (instead of the 50-seat screening room) and will be FREE! Everyone is invited to participate in this unique event on Tuesday April 19, 2011 at 7PM. TEDTalks Salons combine pre-recorded TED talks with one live speaker to spark engaged conversation and ideas among participants. No talk is longer than 18 minutes so the pace is lively and eclectic. The live speaker on April 19 will be artist and West Collection Director Lee Stoetzel, who will speak about his own artwork. The pre-recorded TEDTalks will include committee favorites from the TED2011 conference in Long Beach, CA held in March.

Received a phone call from my sister (who happens to be moving into Phoenixville on Saturday) who said there is a sign in front of the new 101 Bridge Restaurant saying that it will be opening tomorrow(6/25).

If anyone here attended tonight or plans to attend over the next couple of days, please write in with your thoughts on Phoenixville's newest restaurant. Editor Note 6/25: This has been confirmed by a couple of the commenters.
