Join us for a dynamic Director’s Circle Salon exploring the legacy of Ilse and Lloyd Ruocco’s groundbreaking Design Center. Ruocco authority and guest curator, Todd Pitman, will share historical and archival insights, and Curt Sherman, interior designer and fellow Mingei Director’s Circle member, will bring firsthand stories from his time working closely with Ilse Ruocco at this creative hub. This talk will be moderated by Inside the Design Center guest curator, Dave Hampton.
The panel discussion will take place in Mingei’s La Atalaya Foundation Theater. Light refreshments will be provided, and there will be time for mingling with fellow Director’s Circle Members and other special guests. Please note that ARTIFACT at Mingei will not be open for dinner this evening. If you’d like to dine nearby after our program, Cucina Urbana is an excellent option in the neighborhood.
Director's Circle members, please RSVP to Allison Manch.
