Bringing Bristol’s creative community together
An event born out of a mission to bring the creative community of Bristol and the South West together through a series of inspiring talks, workshops and get-togethers returns to the city next month.
The first Thread of 2018 on Thursday, March 22 will feature talks from graphic artist Emily Forgot, illustrator and designer Kyle Bean, and self-professed connoisseurs of make-believe Lord Whitney.
Emily embraces the odd and the surreal. Turning her hand to anything from illustration, installations, print design and branding, she has created work across various sectors for clients such as Selfridges, Harrods, The W Hotel and V&A.

Founded by double act, Amy Lord and Rebekah Whitney, Lord Whitney are best known for their distinctive visuals, innovative ideas and eye for detail from editorials to immersive experiences, music videos to ad campaigns, to sets within rooms and to rooms within sets.
