Ladies, Wine and Design Newcastle supports and champions women and non-binary creatives* in our local community and around the world. We hold monthly events where we drink wine**, chat ‘all-things’ design, business and this
thing called life. If you would like to join an event please sign up for the newsletter, or join us on facebook and instagram. Additionally, please get in touch via DM if you'd like to collaborate, host us in your space, teach a workshop, or be a guest speaker.
*Our space is inclusive of all women, non-binary, agender and gender non-conforming people.
**Alcohol is entirely optional.
Watch this space early February!

We're always wanging on about the fact women make up only 11% of creative directors worldwide. So this month we're bringing you one of the women from that very small percentage - the amazing Eilidh McDonald, Joint Creative Director, Frame, Glasgow.

After a month off to enjoy the summer we're back with the wonderfully talented Emily Stanney from Curate Creative. Emily's gonna be talking to us about how she got into design, her personal experience through uni, graduating from Northumbria and how she landed her dream job.

Hot town, summer in the city. Join us for a picnic and let's discuss design, creativity and life. And while we chat we'll have a few glasses of wine, enjoy picky bits and hope that the sun shines!

Numbers show there's a very small percentage of women leading the creative industry. We believe we can change that through mentorship and championing others' work. Initially, we loved the idea of relaxed salon nights to collaborate, meet and share with other creative ladies. So we reached out to Jessica Walsh to bring Ladies, Wine & Design to the Toon.
Every month, we host an event with a different theme. It could be a general chit-chat or a portfolio review. More often than not, we have an amazing guest who agrees to impart their knowledge. Our meet-ups happen in High Bridge Works on High Bridge Street in Newcastle city centre. We also hold workshops and activities and host occasional parties and nights out.
