Sacramento is full of design talent and if you’re looking to get inspired, learn more, or make connections in the industry – register for Design Week Sacramento. The conference theme this year is “Multi-Dimensional.” Creativity knows no boundaries! We’re not just creators, designers, or doers. We’re also leaders, entrepreneurs, and dreamers. Behind every creative is a kaleidoscope of identities and interests that is constantly evolving.
At Design Week, we invite you to embrace your multifaceted identity and curiosities. Explore a diverse range of talks, workshops, and conversations. Connect with old friends or make new discoveries. Come as yourself, and walk away an even more multidimensional, inspired creative human.

Day 1 Keynote: The Multi-Faceted Creative by Will Rodriguez
Creative people by nature are passionate, talented, and dimensional individuals. Behind every creative is a kaleidoscope of interests that is constantly evolving. In a world where everyone tells you to pick one thing to specialize in, how can you turn your multifaceted identity into a superpower? Explore how your dynamic identity can fuel your success in a world hungry for innovation.

As creative professionals, we can contribute our expertise to influence the city in which we live and work.
