"My name is Lucinda Graham, I'm a 23-year-old Belfast based Freelance Creative. I enjoy the umbrella term that is "Freelance Creative", because it allows me to be and do whatever comes my way, and I am never tied down to simply one role or task. These passions include fast fashion and sustainability awareness and activism, youth work, body positivity, and mental health awareness activist (mostly through youtube and my instagram account), events management, running and hosting panels and upcycling workshops and last but not least, working as a stylist. I feel extremely passionate about the renewal of Belfast and Northern Ireland as a creative place for artists of all kinds to exist and thrive. I'm passionate about women and teens knowing their worth, and charity shopping/upcycling clothes to create new looks.
.
.
Power to me means being formidable. I would never describe myself as powerful, but I do believe I am formidable. Meaning that I never give up, I keep going and have the vision set ahead of me for what I hope the future to be. This vision for the future holds my actions to be accountable today. Power doesn't always equate to brash, loud examples of outward strength, but for me, speaks of the inner quiet strength to keep putting one foot ahead of the other, walking in grace and humility in whatever you do.

We are introducing our second panellist Chris McKenna who is a compositor and specialises in animated and live action content.
-
"Hey, I'm Chris McKenna, and I currently work at JamMedia as a compositor. JamMedia is an award-winning production studio specializing in animated and live-action content for children and my job as a compositor is to take the work from all departments and bring it together for what you see on screen.
.
It's inspiring for me to be a part of a creative team of individuals who bring a wide range of skills together with the collective aim of producing content to entertain viewers.
.
I joined this panel as, although I am currently in work, within the chosen industry I went to university to study, I still suffered setbacks when first graduating and I feel that I still ask myself some of the same questions I asked myself back when I was a new graduate. I think as creatives, we always question where we fit and where our passion will take us and that's okay. I hope that sharing my experience will help those in the transition from uni to working life. " - @crickymck
-
It is super important for us to have a wide variation of backgrounds on our panel because we are able to have a wide range of different perspectives and stories.
-
Join us on the 8.10.19 for a night filled of great conversation and real talk!

Join us for our first Share 6 event of 2019 – “POWER” over @belfastdesignwk on the 4th of November from 7:30 - 9PM in our Belfast Design Week Hub.
-
We’ll be joined by 6 creative industry speakers who have all stepped outside of the usual patterns in their specialist areas to come up with new and exciting ventures, to think creatively or change paths entirely.
-
The theme for this year for @belfastdesignwk is ‘POWER’ and the word has its intricacies have so much sway on our personal and professional lives. Power can be seen as positive or negative.
-
Power can be a constant struggle or it can be delicately shared. Power can be a responsibility that some of us wish we had, or a stronghold we wish others didn’t. Its dynamic is an integral part of the design industry today, and it is why we’re excited to be exploring this theme for Belfast Design Week 2019.

@womenfolk.co & Blick Shared Studios & @creatingaspace have teamed up to create a unique interactive event with a panel of female design entrepreneurs based in Belfast talking about their experiences as a female entrepreneur , the journey in the design industry and how they have crafted their business up until this point. The panel will be taking place on the 5th November during @belfastdesignwk
.
.
The phrase ‘The Time is Now’ came from noticing a change within Belfast within the creative scene. We love that there is a rush of women in design that are inspired to pursue their creative dreams. .
.
There will be a panel of four female designers from different design disciplines and backgrounds discussing their perspective of achieving success within the design industries. We will be asking the panellists to share their story of how they built their businesses and what the realities they have faced in the midst of creating an entrepreneurial lifestyle.
