Fashion meets sustainability in Slow Fashion Day

KPBS arts reporter Julia Dixon Evans returns with her recommendations for arts events to check out this weekend, from a 'doom metal' concert to bookish events.Guests:Claudia Rodríguez-Biezunski, founder, Sew LokaChristopher Carson, founder, The Homegrown ProjectChristopher Ashley, artistic director, La Jolla PlayhouseJulia Dixon Evans, arts reporter, KPBS
