WHY EXPOSURE MATTERS.
Teen Expo began in Memphis in 2021 with a question from community members: how can more teens get access to people, places and work they rarely encounter?
ABOUT
Make a first experience possible
A campus becomes easier to imagine after you walk it. A career becomes easier to understand after you meet someone doing the work. Teen Expo connects young people to those first experiences.
