Life After Design with Joe Ray

Hear Joe Ray’s story of leaving a 35-year design career to reinvent himself as an artist—and discover what life after design can look like.
About this Event

What happens when you leave a career in design behind? Life After Design offers a candid look at what it means to walk away from a 35-year career in design and advertising to pivot and reinvent yourself as an artist.

Joe Ray shares the emotional (and financial) challenges, hard choices, unexpected freedom, and new possibilities that came with making that leap, and how the skills, experience, and creative instincts developed over a lifetime in design became tools for building something completely new.

It's a story about letting go, taking risks, following your passion, and finding your voice. All while discovering that the best part of your career is the life that comes after it.

🚀Attendees will also receive a one-time discount code for Phoenix Design Week Conference boarding passes!

Don't miss your opportunity to hear Joe's amazing story!
