Brilliantly Wired: Dyslexia and the Strengths that Set Us Apart A Signature Event for Dyslexia Awareness Month Wednesday, October 1, 2025 7:30-9:00 a.m. Johnson County Arts And Heritage Center, 8788 Metcalf Ave, Overland Park, KS 66212 In celebration of Dyslexia Awareness Month, Horizon Academy invites you to join us for the inaugural Brilliantly Wired event—a morning of inspiration, conversation, and community focused on celebrating the brilliance of different minds. Together, we’ll explore how learning differences can shape lives, spark creativity, and fuel success. Featured Speakers:
  • Jo Marie Scaglia – Kansas City restaurant owner and founder of The Mixx and Caffeteria Modern Cafe + Marketplace, a passionate advocate for whole, real food and inclusive work environments.
  • Justin Antoniotti – President and General Manager of KMBC, a leader in local media with a commitment to community storytelling and education.
  • Marc Murphy (joining remotely from NYC) – Celebrity chef, Food Network personality, and author, sharing his personal journey with dyslexia and creative success.
Brilliantly Wired is more than stories of resilience. This event is about changing lives through science-based education and rewriting stories for the next generation of learners. This is an exclusive morning with high-impact leaders who think—and lead—differently. Seats are limited—this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
