Join us at the SDF Spring Mixers!

The SDF Mixers are spaces for our design community to come together and respond to how we see our world. Come with your ideas, find your collaborators, and leave with inspiration. This is a gathering of the city’s most creative minds coming together to connect and fuel the Seattle Design Festival’s energy. The SDF 2026 theme, IN[FLUX]➔, explores tension, movement, and change during this critical moment in time. Join us for celebrations of flux, transformation, and the beautiful instability that drives great design forward!
