PSFK 2015: Live, Work, Play Better
PSFK 2015 seeks to inspire a creative professional audience to live, work and play better. Recognizing the dynamic blur that are our days, we will present speakers, projects, activities and ideas that provide balance, effectiveness and personal growth.
This three day event will revolve around the classic PSFK full-day conference on Friday, April 17th, 2015 – and additional programming will be designed to engage and inspire the audience before and after the event.

About
For the first time in nine years, we’re expanding from a one-day event into a three-day opportunity to immerse yourself in experiences that provide a glimpse of a better way to live, work, and play. From Thursday through Saturday, we will host workshops, tours, dinners, group-exercise and other experiences.
