TRA In the Arena Series


The Theodore Roosevelt Association’s In The Arena Series is a compelling quarterly event held at the Theodore Roosevelt Birthplace in New York City.

This series showcases distinguished leaders from diverse fields—including military, police, sports, civic, business, science, and more—who embody TR’s spirit of bold action and leadership. Each gathering offers attendees the opportunity to hear inspiring stories and insights from individuals who strive valiantly in their own arenas, reflecting Theodore Roosevelt’s unmatched dedication to service and excellence.

In the words of Theodore Roosevelt, “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles...” This series honors those who are “actually in the arena,” taking courageous steps to make a positive impact in their communities and professions.

More information about upcoming speakers, dates, and how to participate will be coming soon. Stay connected for updates on this unique opportunity to engage with leaders who carry forward Roosevelt’s enduring legacy.

More information coming soon!
