My Life as an Illustrator & Designer by Alison Gardiner

If you are sitting enjoying a mug of tea or coffee as you read this, chances are it could be in an Essex WI Centenary Mug!

The Arts & Leisure Committee are delighted that the designer of the mugs, Alison Gardiner, will be joining us by Zoom to talk about her life as an Illustrator and designer and how her career has developed after studying printed textiles to the giftware business she has today.

Over the years Alison has designed in a variety of areas from children’s books to cross stich kits, from the heritage sector including Buckingham Palace and the National Trust all the way to the Women’s Institute!

This is a talk not to be missed and like Alison’s designs it will sell out fast!
