Macy's Fashion Incubator San Francisco

The last few months I have had the privilege of being a mentor at the Incubator with 6 designers.  I am working with my good friend Jeanne Allen, the executive director and whose expertise is marketing.  With Jeanne, her husband Marc, Roger Kase and others, we are helping these designers become marketable and productive.  They are fortunate to have a wonderful workshop and office on the top floor of the Macy's Men's Building.  See www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUSennSnY-c.


Jeanne, Me, Paloma, Bethany, Justin, knelling, Tamara, Sabah, and Tony...

I was leaving to be the Artist In Residence for Camp Mather and the last day before I was to leave, the Incubator group gave me a wonderful potted orchid plant and yummy cupcakes to thank me for my help.
I am still mentoring......Things are coming along to be ready for a photo shoot and show..
