Puzzling Adventures are a cross between a scavenger hunt, an adventure race, and an informative self-guided walking tour. Each adventure consists of a series of locations that you are guided to where you are required to answer a question or solve a puzzle to receive your next instruction. Compete as a group, individually or create multiple teams and race each other. Almost all of our adventures are designed to be wheelchair and stroller friendly and all are carefully crafted to be entertaining and informative with something to appeal to all ages. Complete the adventure as quickly as possible to win first place or take your time and enjoy the journey. Price is per team, not per person. Groups can be any size, but small groups are recommended for the best experience.

TEDxKnoxville: Unearthing Creativity celebrates local innovators redefining creativity in the Appalachian Highlands, inspiring bold thinking and connection to shape Knoxville’s vibrant future.

TEDxKnoxville: Unearthing Creativity is a celebration of the thinkers, makers, and dreamers shaping the pulse of our city and reimagining what creativity means in the Appalachian Highlands.
Our speakers represent the vast and dynamic spirit of this city — individuals forging new paths of thought, design, and expression that reflect both where we’ve come from and where we’re heading. Together, they embody the creative energy that continues to shape our community’s identity and future. Unearthing Creativity is more than a theme — it’s an invitation. To listen deeply. To think boldly. To rediscover the creative force that connects us all. Join us as ideas take root, voices rise, and Knoxville’s imagination unfolds. Let’s unearth creativity — and see what grows when inspiration meets intention.
