When Phoenix Design Week kicks off on Monday, September 24, there are plenty of ways to get in on the design-centric fun — whether it’s your life’s work or you’re simply an avid admirer of desirable design. To aid in your choosing process (you have plenty of options), we picked three must-attend events that’ll provide different insights into the design world.
Unfinished Spaces Screening @ FilmBar
Alysa Nahmias and Benjamin Murray’s documentary Unfinished Spaces looks at Cuba’s National Art Schools, an ambitious architectural endeavor designed in 1961 by a trio of architects appointed by Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. As the country’s revolution continued, the project was neglected and left unfinished.

Pedal Craft 2 @ Kitchen Sink Studios
The second edition of the cycle poster exhibition that fuses design, arts, bikes, and community opens at Kitchen Sink Studios on Friday, September 28, at 6 p.m..
The event includes a talk at 8 p.m. from cycling advocate and author Grant Petersen, who will also sign his book Just Ride, and a group ride to downtown hangouts. Admission and participation are free.
Creative Mornings PHX @ TBA
No, TBA is not some cool new hangout. We’ve got our ears perked for more deets on our city’s first-ever Creative Mornings event, which will take place on Friday, September 28, at a yet-unannounced location and a yet-unannounced time. Creative Mornings includes a 20-minute lecture and breakfast. Admission to the event is free. It will continue on a monthly basis after the kick-off. Keep tabs on the event through CMPhx’s Twitter (@Phoenix_CM) for updates.
