London’s biggest artist-led illustration event will be returning in less than two weeks time to a new venue, London’s iconic Truman Brewery, in the heart of Shoreditch, with another jam-packed festival of illustration! Celebrate all things illustration at The London Illustration Fair (LIF) from November 29th to 1st December with over 100 artists and creatives offering artworks, prints, products, talks, workshops, and festivities.
Alongside 80+ exhibition stands, LIF are hosting a programme of creative workshops, from collage to zine making, and even portfolio reviews. This broad range of workshops are ideal for both illustrators and designers, as well as those wishing to flex their creative muscle. Workshops range from 10 minute quickies, to 3 hour master-classes. Ones to look out for include a half-day deep dive into Studio Ghibli, One Minute Briefs with Nick Entwhistle, and Portfolio Reviews by Handsome Frank!
For 2024, LIF are also running two design competitions in advance of the fair. For the first, the team have been working alongside global cosmetics brand LUSH to create a design competition, open to all who wish to get creative! LUSH are asking designers and illustrators to submit a square design, either a new design or an existing artwork to the specifications set out below. The designs will be judged by LUSH and the top three entries will go on display at the LUSH stand within the fair’s entrance space. A final winner will then be chosen by visitors over the duration of the fair with a final winner announced on the Sunday.
For the second competition LIF have partnered up with Two Tribes Brewery, their official bar sponsor. As two creative brands seeking a similar ethos – to promote creativity and build partnerships – Two Tribes and LIF 2024 concocted a competition with an incredible prize of a year’s supply of beer! The winning beer will also be posted to their socials. Learn more about both competitions here.
