SUMMARY:ERICA TANOV: The Fine Art of Collaboration — The dynamics of successful creative partnerships

In addition to Tanov\, panelists include three talented creative women: interior designer ELENA DENDIBERIA\, co-founder of Studio Ahead; textile artist AMY KEEFER\, the ‘Beyond Trend’ Coordinator and Textiles Studio Lead of Creative Growth  and artist EMILY PAYNE. \nERICA TANOV is a woman-owned company led by its namesake founder\, which recently celebrated 30 years in business. Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area\, Erica Tanov is a designer of clothing and homeware collections.  Working with the finest luxurious fabrics and materials\, embracing meticulous construction and subtle detailing\, the designer is always drawn to a raw\, natural beauty. Erica Tanov collections are available at the designer’s Berkeley retail boutique\, and now also at her new Berkeley studio\, a carefully curated space\, which showcases the full breadth of her own designs\, including wallpaper\, architectural tiles\, furniture\, bedding\, and fabric collections\, as well as vintage ‘finds’ (furniture\, jewelry\, & accessories). Instagram: @ericatanov \nDIANE DORRANS SAEKS is the bestselling author of twenty-five design books\, including “Parisian By Design”\,  “Jean-Louis Denior Interiors”\,  and “Michael S. Smith: Elements of Style”. She was a founding editor of Metropolitan Home and Garden Design magazines. DORRANS SAEKS is interior design editor for PaperCity and an editor with C MAGAZINE.

Since then\, Creative Growth’s annual runway show has expanded into a generative fashion department within the studio\, partnering with important artists\, brands and designers across the country. Founded in 1974 in Oakland\, California by Elias Katz and Florence Ludins-Katz\, the organization was established with a mission to utilize art as a primary means for individuals with disabilities to express themselves  within a safe and nurturing community and gain professional gallery exposure. Creative Growth operates as both studio and gallery that not only showcases the works of its 140+ artists but actively promotes their inclusion into major collections and institutions globally\, such as MoMA\, the Smithsonian and the recent historic acquisition by SFMoMA. Sales from the gallery directly fund artist support and studio operations\, helping to sustain and expand this vibrant creative community. @creativegrowth \nEMILY PAYNE grew up in Mill Valley\, Calif.\, and Amherst\, Mass.

SUMMARY:Product Design For A Circular Economy: A Practical Guide w/ Tact Product Dev\, Whipsaw\, Informal\, Google\, Logitech and more
DESCRIPTION:Arguably\, the most pressing issue our planet will face in the next 100 years is to address the massive human-created impacts from the last 100.
