Highlands Ranch

Event Hall A - Highlands Ranch

As the city prepares to host the Summer Olympics in 2024, Paris will once again be in the spotlight.

Join Active Minds as we trace the city's history, from its Celtic origins through becoming a cultural and political hub of France. We'll visit with some of the city's most colorful characters and notable places, including the Eiffel Tower, which was despised by Parisians in its day but has come to symbolize one of the world’s great cities.
