Design Cape Town
A conversation series founded by Jessica Walsh

Ladies, Wine* & Design is a non-profit initiative with chapters in 280 cities worldwide. Only .1% of creative agencies are founded by women & non-binary people. Our mission is to see more diversity in the creative industry. Join the community for support and inspiration by following us on Instagram and attending our meetups in Cape Town that cover a wide variety of topics relating to creativity, business, and life.
*Alcohol is entirely optional; you can drink tea, coffee, or whatever you like!
Jessica Walsh, a New York based designer, started Ladies, Wine & Design 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. By championing the fierce female creatives in our city we hope to build the female presence in the industry and grow the confidence of the ladies wanting to get into it. Check out what inspired her to get the ball rolling and other cities that have started this great initiative:

Numbers show that there's a very small percentage of women leading the creative industry. However, we find the people we're inspired by most are often other talented ladies. Here are a few Proudly South African creatives and some fierce internationals we have admired, worked with, or had our eye on! Email us if you would like to nominate someone for this list.
