What we’re about

UX Speakeasy is Southern California’s largest UX design community — connecting and empowering over 7,500 designers, researchers, strategists, and product thinkers across San Diego and Orange County. << Be sure to join both Meetup pages!

We’re a nonprofit, volunteer-powered organization with a simple mission: advance UX design through connection, education, and the amplification of local voices to drive positive change — by design.

From intimate coffee meetups to large-scale conferences, we create opportunities for UX professionals and enthusiasts to:

  • Connect with peers, mentors, and industry leaders
  • Learn through workshops, panels, and hands-on activities
  • Share insights, projects, and experiences that strengthen our practice
  • Contribute to the growth of the local design community

Whether you’re a seasoned design leader, a new graduate, or just curious about the field, you’ll find a welcoming community ready to exchange ideas, collaborate, and have a little fun along the way.

Join us at an upcoming event and be part of shaping the future of UX in Southern California.
