Don't miss the opening reception of Sketching the Surface: Exploring the New York School of Interior Design Archives and Contemporary Pattern Design on Thursday, September 25 at 6 pm, at the NYSID Gallery, 170 East 70th Street.

This exhibition explores the legacy of 20th-century pattern designs from the NYSID Archives—fabric, rugs, carpets, wall coverings, tiles—created by Joann Nelsen, Joe Martin, Joseph Grusczak, and Inez Croom. Their work will be featured alongside contemporary works designed by Dan Funderburgh, Jeanetta Gonzales, Li Iordanov Dan, and Andrew Raftery. The show celebrates the enduring impact of pattern in design.

Mark your calendars for a night of celebration and light refreshments!
