SUMMARY:Women in Leadership & Design (WILD) Jam: Focus Your Vision
DESCRIPTION:We are redirecting the attention of our Women in Leadership & Design (WILD) community through a vision boarding party during SF Design Week. Vision boarding is an inspiring creative tool for focusing one’s attention on a better\, more intentional future — a major part of both SFDW’s and WILD’s reasons for being. When we give our hopes\, dreams\, and wishes form — whether we put them in words by writing them down\, or make them tangible through visual design — they are more likely to become a reality. So we will gather\, with magazines and collage materials\, to bring our unique visions for creating a better world and daily life\, together.  \nWe will provide thematic creative prompts ahead of the session\, such as ‘How do you want to show up bold?’ to guide all participants in selecting powerful images to work with\, that uplift and elevate our mission and purpose. Participants are encouraged to bring their own inspirational materials\, adding a personal touch to their vision boards and enhancing the collective creativity of our WILD community. We are excited to ignite change through art and design. As this year’s ‘Attention’ theme suggests\, we seek to bring together a global and intersectional community of designers\, strategists\, artists\, and activists to focus on connections yet to be made. Learn more about WILD here. \nAgenda: \n\n3:30-3:45: Gathering and mingling\n3:45-4:00: Brief introductions and intentions.\n4:00-5:15: Vision boarding; 5 minute break moments will happen throughout the creation session to share ideas\, works in progress\, and reflections.\n5:15-5:45: Share vision boards with one another\n5:45-6:00: Wrap up & goodbyes\n\nThis WILD Jam session will be held at The Box SF\, the former ‘William Randolph Hearst Printing Plant’ and one of San Francisco’s premier event spaces. It has been generously donated by Mark E. Sackett\, Founder and Executive Creative Director at TheBoxSF.com\, Sackett Design and Reflectur.com. Learn more by following @theboxsfmercantile and @theboxsfevents on Instagram. \nExcited to support the WILD community? Click this link to donate.

SUMMARY:ERICA TANOV: The Fine Art of Collaboration — The dynamics of successful creative partnerships
DESCRIPTION:Join clothing & lifestyle designer ERICA TANOV\, and her collaborators for a lively conversation and visual presentation\, moderated by acclaimed design writer DIANE DORRANS SAEKS. They will explore the art of creative collaboration for home design and fashion collections. 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. She has long-standing creative relationships with leading California and international designers. She has a large following on her Instagram: @dianedorranssaeks \nELENA DENDIBERIA is co-founder of interior design studio Studio Ahead where she leads creative work\, focusing on custom details. She is an internationally exhibited artist with a sensual approach to art and design. Elena brings together the tactile experience of her art practice with a design narrative that evolves through close collaboration with artists\, craftspeople\, and fabricators. Instagram: @studioahead \nTextile artist AMY KEEFER\, the ‘Beyond Trend’ Coordinator and Textiles Studio Lead of Creative Growth\, explores the intersection of art and apparel\, viewing clothing as an extension of oneself and a medium through which personal histories and allegiances are revealed. She holds an MFA from California College of the Arts. An advocate for wearable art in all forms\, Keefer joined Creative Growth\, a pioneering non-profit organization dedicated to supporting artists with developmental disabilities\, in 2016. 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. She received her B.A. from Oberlin College in Ohio and her M.F.A. in Printmaking and Book Arts from San Francisco State University in 1999. Her work can be seen at the Seager Gray Gallery in Mill Valley\, the SFMOMA Artist Gallery in San Francisco\, the Kala Art Institute and the Cecile Moochnek Gallery in Berkeley.

SUMMARY:The Emergency Was Curiosity: In Defense of Useless Projects
DESCRIPTION:A talk and Q&A with investor and producer Christie George about The Emergency Was Curiosity\, an illustrated book report inspired by Jenny Odell’s How to Do Nothing. Christie’s project could be categorized as useless – there was no client\, no publisher\, no commissioning editor; she did this project for no other reason than that she wanted to. \nDuring the summer of 2020\, inspired by ideas about attention in Jenny’s book\, Christie began making hand-drawn illustrations\, watercolors\, and collages as a creative response and a means to develop her own practice of attention. What began for her as a “book report” turned into a body of artwork\, an exhibition\, an event series and\, more recently\, a group project. \nThis talk will ask each of us: what is worth paying attention to? Christie will mount a defense of your most useless projects – the work that is hard to categorize\, commodify\, or sell – and challenge you to honor and follow your own creative attention. \nSpeakers: \nChristie George\,  Investor/Producer \n  \n
