On November 15, 2024 the LA Times Daily Pilot published an article on the Laguna Art Museum’s Art + Nature Fashion Show. This up cycled couture fashion show invited students and faculty from local colleges and universities to design fashion that reflects the mission statements of various LAM community partners as a kick-off for its 12th annual Art + Nature Initiative. Student designer, Erica Patapoff, created a gorgeous gown for the Laguna Beach Garden Club. Several of our members were it attendance. (Photo by James Carbone)
