Did you know that the Monterey Museum of Art in downtown Monterey now has a gift shop? MMA’s Laurie Iwami accurately describes it as “small yet delightful” and adds, “I already did some of my holiday shopping there.” Holiday gift season is over, but unique pieces are still available. The shop is located right by the entrance to the museum and is now fully stocked with catalogs, jewelry and MMA-branded merch, including beautiful wall calendars. The above silk wrap was made by Domini Anne, one of the artists who collaborated with the museum on building this year’s Iluminado installation (still on view until Jan. 18). Anne used MMA artist-in-residence Joe Ramos’ photographs to create Iluminado-exclusive satin and silk scarves and ponchos. The gift shop is open 11am-5pm Thursday to Sunday. MMA is located at 559 Pacific St., Monterey.
