I’m always so extremely fascinated by the stories of people who are really, really good at what they do (guess it’s a good thing I became a journalist). And next Wednesday, a crew of some of L.A.’s most talented designers will be sharing their behind-the-seams stories on a panel at the Pasadena Museum of California Art.

As part of the museum’s California Design Biennial, west coast designers Calleen Cordero, Gregory Parkinson, George Esquivel, Tanya Aguiñiga and Gr.Dano’s Jill Giordano and Brian Scheyer  — who are each featured in the Biennial — will talk about the tailor-made style of business that they all have in common. Veteran style scribe Rose Apodaca, who curated the Biennial’s fashion portion, will host the evening.

I was lucky enough to be treated to the visual feast of the Biennial earlier this summer when it first opened. And if you have yet to go, now is the time — it only runs through October 31.

Wednesday, October 20. 5 p.m to 7 p.m. $5 for students and seniors, $7 for adults. 490 E. Union St., Pasadena. (626) 568-3665. pmcaonline.org
