A conversation series by Jessica Walsh
hosted by Live Schille & Aurora Brunvoll
Ladies, Wine Design was started by Jessica Walsh after writing this article as an initiative to foster women creativity. Only a tiny percent of creative directors are women, and LW&D wants to help change this through mentorship circles, portfolio reviews, and creative meet-ups. In less than a year of launching, we've spread to chapters in over 120 cities all over the world.
LW&D is a monthly salon night limited to a small group of creative women. We’ll wine, dine, and have casual conversations on a wide variety of topics relating to creativity, business, and life. Occasionally we will host events open to a bigger audience, like talks, speed-dates or other concepts.
Want to collaborate? Please get in touch by email.
Follow us on Instagram and Facebook to keep up to date. You can also join our facebook group here. The Oslo chapter was started (and is led) by Live Schille and Aurora Brunvoll. Our board members are Alexandra Gjerlaugsen and Kine Jakobsen.
We're looking for new ideas and collaborators. Please get in touch if you or your business would like to contribute :)

Jessica Walsh wrote an article on 12kindsofkindness.com, about her experience with other women in the industry, and how sometimes women can be unsupportive of each other. She has been 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.
A wage survey from 2015 conducted by Grafill, the Norwegian organization for visual communication, IxDA and Making Waves shows that there is still a wage gap between men and women in Norway. Recent graduated women earn more than men, but men still earn in average 11% more than women.
Here are some articles and resources if you want to learn more:
Numbers show that there's a very small percentage of women leading the creative industry. However, we know there are a lot of talented ladies out there. Please email us if you want to nominate someone for this list.
