DESCRIPTION:<p><span><img width="300" height="123" border="0" align="left" src="/Images/cultural-fluency/calendar/summer-2012/ca-designing-women.jpg" alt="California&rsquo\;s Designing Women: 1896 &ndash\; 1986 Exhibit Opens" class="pictureleft" /></span></p>\n<p>Time/Price: Please refer to the website for current museum hours &amp\; admission rates</p>\n<p>Description:&nbsp\;Women have long been recognized as practitioners of the decorative arts\, but commercial design and fine craft\, which are the focus of <em>California&rsquo\;s Designing Women\, 1896&ndash\;1986</em>\, were long considered the province of men. This unprecedented exhibition honors female designers who made major contributions to Californian and American design by incorporating into their work the newest styles\, materials\, and technologies of their time&mdash\;often influenced by California&rsquo\;s unique confluence of cultures\, among them Indigenous American\, Chinese\, Japanese\, and Mexican. Many of its approximately 240 examples of textiles\, ceramics\, furniture\, lighting\, tapestries\, jewelry\, clothing\, and graphics are being exhibited for the first time.</p>\n<p>Website:&nbsp\;<a href="http://theautry.org/exhibitions/california-designing-women" target="_blank">http://theautry.org/exhibitions/california-designing-women</a></p>
