Upon Cameron's return she met with Diana Luna and Manny Guardado at the Norton Simon Museum of Art in Pasadena. "We walked through their collections and brainstormed ideas for a workshop that became Textiles in Art. "Unravel the history of textiles in art...explore examples from the Norton Simon collection...(then) create an original textile-inspired collage..." The workshop is scheduled for February 23, 2013!
