Aspen Institute announces Fargo Ideas event at Fargo Theatre in October

The Aspen Institute is coming to Fargo, North Dakota! 

The Aspen Institute is an educational and policy studies organization based in Washington, DC. Its mission is to foster leadership based on enduring values and to provide a nonpartisan venue for dealing with critical issues. The Institute has campuses in Aspen, Colorado, and on the Wye River on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. It also maintains offices in New York City and has an international network of partners. 

It’s signature event, the Aspen Ideas Festival, is the nation’s premier, public gathering for leaders from around the globe and across many disciplines to engage in deep and inquisitive discussions about ideas and issues that shape our lives and challenge our times. The 16th Annual Festival held in June 2020 will convene 4,500 attendees and 600 speakers across ten days from a wide range of international sectors and industries to the Aspen Institute’s Colorado campus. 

Inspired by this event, the Aspen Institute along with local partners are bringing the spirit of the Festival to Fargo through an event entitled “Fargo IDEAS: An Evening of Conversation.” The event will be held on October 16 at 7:00 pm at the historic Fargo Theatre and will feature a collection of Aspen Institute experts in conversation with local leaders on a variety of topics.
