The Transformative Power of Sharing Secrets

Frank Warren has been called “the most trusted stranger in America,” and it’s easy to see why. Over a million people have confessed a secret to him as part of PostSecret. His Blog, PostSecret.com, has received over 850,000,000 views, and his six books are all New York Times Best Sellers.

Now, in this one-of-kind multimedia presentation, Frank shares his secrets with empathy and insight.

Based on his popular TED Talk, Frank weaves together poignant personal stories and useful lessons about creating communities of trust and sharing that can allow people and organizations to unlock the transformative power of secrets.

This will be one of the few times this year that Frank shares this unique program that opens minds and hearts.

Learn more about the PostSecret exhibition at the Museum of Us, where visitors can see thousands of secrets sent to Frank Warren over the years, his original mailbox, "naked mail" and even submit a secret of their own to the exhibit.

This event is open to all ages. However, content shared in this artist talk may not be suitable for all and a responsible adult should accompany all children 12 years old and younger. 

You will see real secrets from real people. PostSecret contains content that may be difficult or disturbing for some guests, such as crude language, violence, and sexual situations or abuse.

This event will be photographed and video-recorded. By purchasing a ticket and entering the event, all event guests will be giving permission to be photographed or video-recorded during the event for use in the Museum's marketing and promotional materials.
