“EVERY ONE OF US WILL FAIL, THE REAL QUESTION IS HOW WILL WE RESPOND?”
Come hear some of West Michigan’s most intriguing personalities share personal stories of failure, and stick around for an after party outside under the pavilion at Saugatuck Center for the Arts with music from Code West, local food vendors, and cash bar.
Head-shaking, eye-blinking moments of “what just happened?” that make for some of the most powerful, transformative tales you’ll ever hear. This one-of-a-kind platform integrates storytelling and performance to reveal the vulnerabilities of influential people in order to eliminate the fear, stigma and isolation around failure.
USA Today says that Failure Lab, “Demystifies the process of innovation.”
Failure Lab presenters share adversities behind their success, allowing audience members to learn and grow from their powerful stories.
