Design-y Social Calendar

I'm super excited about these design events coming up in the next month in Denver:

TONIGHT: "Design the Modern Board" at Design Within Reach in Cherry Creek.

The winning design will be made into a one-of-a-kind board by K2 Snowboards and featured in the DWR studio and online.

TUES. APRIL 7: AIA Denver: Architecture, Art & Appetizers.

10 speakers present on topics of their choice, including architecture history, sculpture, and modern art. www.aiacolorado.org

** SOMEWHERE IN HERE: Wonder Room opens at the Denver Community Museum.

Submit your Denver-themed artifact by April 4. www.denvercommunitymuseum.org

SAT. APRIL 11: ARTCRANK: A Poster Party for Bike People.

ARTCRANK showcases bicycle-inspired original poster artwork that you can enjoy looking at and afford to take home. www.artcrankpostershow.com

TUES. APRIL 21: PechaKucha Night Denver volume 5!

Designers/Architects/Artists share 20 images for 20 seconds each. We'll announce the line-up soon; it's going to be sweet as usual! www.pechakuchanightdenver.com

MON. APRIL 27: Objectified screening at the Mayan theater!

Objectified is a feature-length documentary about our complex relationship with manufactured objects and, by extension, the people who design them. Directed by Gary Hustwit of Helvetica brilliance. I've been looking forward to this one for a while... www.objectifiedfilm.com

... see you there?

**Also scheduled for the next month: Guide Dog puppy #4 arrives on April 18 (name to begin with a P; start brainstorming), Zach is having a birthday and we're celebrating with The Thermals, and in 2 weeks I can cancel with Comcast for the stupid extra service I had to sign up for so they would come fix our cable without charging us.

It's a good month to kick it in Denver!
