If Baltimore is going to continue to grow, we need to think bigger.
That’s why the Mount Vernon offices of the Open Society Foundation is pulling together Big Change Baltimore, a TED-style conference for inspiration and action toward the region’s future.
Speakers include former U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Henry Cisneros, NPR Science Correspondent Shankar Vedantam and NAACP legal defense fund president Sherrilyn Ifill.
Tickets are $125 for the day-long event. OSI is expecting more than 500 people at Center Stage on Calvert Street downtown.

Founded by liberal philanthropist George Soros, OSI takes a special interest on issues of incarceration, education and urban futures.
