Weapons of Mass Creation Fest

Held annually in Playhouse Square, Weapons of Mass Creation calls itself “the premier design and entrepreneurship conference in the Midwest,” and its argument is pretty convincing. Featuring workshops, speakers, and live podcasts broadcasted directly from the State Theatre lobby, the type of “working class creative” the fest is catered to will feel right at home. Today's event takes place from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. and the event continues through Sunday. Single day tickets are $70, and full-weekend passes start at $100. (Shively)
