About
Inspiring Minds grew out of the desire to expand our knowledge about important issues and to foster lifelong learning and critical thinking about the world beyond our day-to-day lives.
Our Mission
To foster interactive discussions and deep discovery about current events
To present broad ranging topics through fascinating speakers who are well known in their fields and who are making an impact locally and globally
To gather and inspire intelligent, inquisitive, dynamic individuals with a thirst for knowledge
To create stimulating conversations and build a stronger sense of community
Our Roots
Originally founded in 2009 by four friends: Eva Vyas, Aimee Caplis, Jill Hibbeln, and Kate Wallace (formerly Kathleen Dammen). Inspiring Minds was created with the goal to provide a platform for lifelong learning in the company of intellectually curious women.
