Pecha Kucha: Architecture and Manufacturing in the Bay Area

January 21, 2026 @ 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM

Museum of Craft and Design

The Museum of Craft and Design is proud to present Pecha Kucha: Architecture and Manufacturing in the Bay Area. Translating to ‘chit-chat’ in Japanese, Pecha Kucha is a fast-paced presentation format in which each speaker shows 20 slides for 20 seconds each.

Coinciding with SF Art Week, this Pecha Kucha asks prominent Bay Area voices to respond to ‘What does manufacturing and/or architecture mean to you’. These broad themes invite diverse perspectives and a more holistic portrayal of what architecture and manufacturing have come to mean in the Bay. Featured speakers include:

– Conner Wishard of Lundberg Design
– Beth Esponnette of Unspun
– Ryan De La Hoz of SF Made
– JD Sassaman of Stanford’s Innovation Center

This event is scheduled from 5-7pm. Join us for this series of dynamic presentations from 5:30 – 6:30 and stay to connect while exploring MCD’s current exhibitions!
