Why is the Informational-Exploration Paradox the most terrifying phenomenon you’ve never heard of? What predicts the smartest team and how will AI change it? Why are ill-posed problems the future work, education, and a robot-proof humanity?

Discover the rich history and vibrant heritage of the Little Spokane River valley. Ty Brown discusses his nonfiction book Along the Little Spokane River: A Sense of Place, offering a captivating journey through that natural beauty and heritage of the valley nestled north of the city of Spokane. This region is known for its stunning natural features—rolling hills, lush forests, and the winding waters of the Little Spokane River, once home to thriving salmon and trout fisheries. Brown explores the valley’s deep cultural roots, from early Native American life centered around the river’s resources to the rise of dairy farming, timber, railroads, and mills that shaped the local economy. Brown also shares the importance of balancing growth with a deep respect for the natural and cultural heritage of this remarkable valley. Presented by Ty Brown, local author Sponsored by the Friends of the Argonne Library An America’s 250th event

The Accessible, Accommodating, and Inclusive Carrousel Event is an annual community celebration hosted by the Rosalie Murrey Memorial Foundation that opens the historic Looff Carrousel to children and families of all abilities. The event creates a sensory-friendly, welcoming space where children with disabilities, their siblings, and their families can ride, play, and connect alongside their neighbors without barriers. This event exists because every child belongs at the heart of community life. By centering accessibility and inclusion from the first ride to the last, the Carrousel Event reflects the truth that disability is part of the full human experience and that joyful, public spaces should be designed for every body and every family. Families can expect adapted seating support, sensory considerations such as adjusted sound and lighting, accessible activities, and connection with disability advocates, service providers, and community partners gathered in one place. The event is family centered, intergenerational, and welcoming to first-time visitors as well as returning families. The Accessible, Accommodating, and Inclusive Carrousel Event honors the legacy of Rosalie "Birdie" Murrey and reflects RMMF's mission to build inclusive early childhood and community systems across the Spokane region. This event is free and open to the public. Pre-registration is encouraged but not required, and helps RMMF prepare adequate sensory supports, seating accommodations, and volunteer coverage. Free and open to the public, no registration required. If you'd like to pre-register, you can do so here.

Registration is required to view the live event and submit questions for the author. Register using the Event URL below. What if the only thing standing between you and the seemingly impossible…was belief? This is the question posed by bestselling author Nir Eyal in his new work, Beyond Belief.  Most of your limits aren’t physical. They’re psychological. In Beyond Belief, Nir Eyal reveals how the hidden assumptions you carry shape what you see, how you feel, and what you do—and how to replace them with beliefs that unlock your true potential. Grounded in neuroscience, psychology, and unforgettable case studies, Eyal introduces the Three Powers of Belief: Attention, Anticipation, and Agency. Mastering these powers transforms how you see challenges, feel about the future, and act when it matters most. You’ll learn how to: Spot hidden opportunities and solutions others overlook. Reclaim your mood, energy, and confidence by reshaping your beliefs. Stay calm, decisive, and in control when life feels uncertain. Break free from beliefs that sabotage your health, relationships, and career. Push further, last longer, and achieve beyond your limits. If you’ve ever quit too soon, stalled in your career, or sabotaged your own goals, this book gives you the science and the system to go further than you thought possible. Surgeries without anesthesia. Placebos that heal. Resilience multiplied 240 times longer. Beyond Belief reveals the science behind these breakthroughs and shows why your limits aren’t fixed—they’re learned. And with the right beliefs, you can achieve breakthrough results. Register now to learn more about how we can unlock our true potential.  About the Author: Nir Eyal writes, consults, and teaches about the intersection of psychology, technology, and human potential. He previously taught at the Stanford Graduate School of Business and the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design at Stanford. He is the author of the international bestsellers Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products and Indistractable: How to Control Your Attention and Choose Your Life, which have sold over 1 million copies in more than 30 languages. As an active angel investor, Nir has backed multi-billion-dollar companies that implement his methodologies, including Canva, Kahoot!, and others. In addition to blogging at NirAndFar.com, his writing has been featured in The New York Times and Harvard Business Review, and he is a regular contributor to Psychology Today.
