Upcoming Western Regional Events

We will be led on a private curator tour with Laura Camerlengo, Western Region Advisory Council Member and Curator in Charge of Costume and Textile Arts at Fine Arts Museums San Francisco.

After the tour, there will be time for a lunch break, and visitors will have the option to peruse the rest of the museum or sign up for an optional lecture at 1:00pm by textile historian Amanda Phillips. Optional lecture is not included in the event price and members will register individually.  

About the exhibit (from the deYoung Museum):

Explore the history of San Francisco through fashion. Featuring one of the most iconic collections of 20th- and 21st-century women’s clothing in the United States, this exhibition includes 100 collection highlights, along with local loans of high fashion and haute couture. The first major presentation of our costume collection in over 35 years, it showcases designs from French couturiers, Japanese avant-garde designers, and other pillars of the fashion industry, including Christian Dior, Alexander McQueen, Christopher John Rogers, Comme des Garçons, and Rodarte. The designs on view, many never shown before, reflect San Francisco’s long-standing tradition of self-expression through fashion.

Fees: $60 Members/ $75 Non-members

There is a limit of 25 people for this event.  Please register as soon as possible to reserve your spot. Tickets will be handed out to registrants on the morning of the event.
