(This is a rug library at our gallery. Sometimes our customers borrow rug books from us to read.)Education is essential in any business. Even in Rug business where most people think it's just about buying and selling rugs. Education is the key. I never stop reading and learning. I always read books/articles on rugs in order to better educate myself. I also attend many classes. I recently attended an extensions rug class at UCLA and a two-day class at the University of California Irvine, UCI offered by ASA (American Society of Appraisers). The more I educate myself, the better I can serve my clients and the more I can connect with them and their rugs. I also give many educational classes and lectures in many different locations such as my own rug gallery, The Textile Museum (Washington DC), Bowers Museum (Santa Anna, California), etc. To better serve our customers, we hire education!!
