Te3n14-Day
For Spring Break, we invited teens to join us for the TE3N14-day! This event will feature panel discussions and networking with local influencers who will focus on addressing the everyday issues teenagers face, with a positive and uplifting approach, culminating in a mixer. Teens will be encouraged to take care of the city they'll inherit by discussing topics from mental health to civic responsibility. Resources will be available to help teens navigate these critical aspects of their lives.
By addressing crucial topics chosen by youth ambassadors such as land use, mental health & gun violence prevention, and financial literacy, the event seeks to foster a sense of ownership and empowerment among the next generation. The TE3N14-Day at the Urban Ballroom will be a vibrant marketplace, offering a diverse array of products created and marketed by teenagers. Attendees can purchase items that reflect the creativity and entrepreneurial spirit of St. Louis youth.
This part serves multiple purposes within the larger context of The TE3N14-Day. Firstly, it provides a platform for teen business owners to gain exposure and experience in sales and marketing. Secondly, it offers attendees a tangible way to support their peers while experiencing firsthand the talent and innovation within their community. This will contribute to the overall atmosphere of empowerment and self-reliance by showcasing young individuals taking the initiative in the realm of entrepreneurship.
