Ladies, Wine &
Design
A conversation series
with Jessica Walsh, hosted by Andrea Beaulieu and Jillian Piehler
A salon night held monthly. We'll have drinks and casual conversations on a wide variety of topics relating to creativity, business, and life. If you're a designer, product designer, creative director, fine artist, art director, film maker, UI/UX designer, photographer, craftswoman, maker, illustrator, production designer or student and would like to join, please email us: LWDBangor@gmail.com. It's free and reservations are first come, first serve. If you'd like to host us in your space, teach a workshop, or lead a discussion, please get in touch! We'd love to hear from you.
Jessica Walsh started Ladies, Wine & Design in New York after doing a lot of thinking and reading on why there are so few women creative directors. She believes we can change that through mentorship and championing others' work.
We couldn't agree more, and we also think it would be fun to meet other creative women. We want to create a warm, open and honest environment were woman can talk real with each other. We want to be on each other's side because creative ladies rule!
Below are a few articles and resources to get your creative minds fired-up!

What's your pay gap?
Numbers show that there's a very small percentage of women leading the creative industry. However, I find the people I’m inspired by most are often other talented ladies. Here are a few women I have admired, worked with, or had my eye on! Email me if you want to nominate someone for this list.
