About this Event
We warmly invite you to the annual Gathering Event for illustration educators! Join us at Quentin Blake Centre for Illustration on Tuesday 10th November, 2026 for a day of making, discussing, sharing, reflecting and developing.
This is our third in person gathering will offer us the opportunity to consider the years’ activities on the theme 'Agitation, Oscillation, Embodiment. The Spaces Between’. We are interested in exploring how educators can hold uncertainty and multiplicity (rather than ideological polarisation) as Machine Learning reshapes illustration and pedagogical practice.
Speakers and workshop facilators to be announced soon.
Lunch and refreshments will be provided. Please email us directly with questions, we would love to hear from you. [email protected]
