Phumeza

CLAIRE BLANCKENBERG AND ZAMA NGCOBO REFLECT ON THEN AND NOW. A part of the process that makes the Veuve Clicquot Bold Women Awards a unique “competition”, is the true sense of community that is created for the entrants and winners from the moment they submit their entries.

Phumeza

I love how award-winning illustrator Megan Bird describes herself – a “maker of things, a raiser of children, and a great high five giver”!

I first came across Megan’s work during the 2021 Let Your Design Shine packaging re-design competition that she was a judge for. And let me tell you… she is phenomenal in her work and as a person. As children, our imaginations can make any small moment big, but when we grow up, we forget the big our … Continue reading Illustrator Megan Bird continues to ADD HOPE this December
