Making a Business of Doodling with YUK FUN

Join us for a very unique event: Shop & Shop Talk with YUK FUN. Book below or via our Eventbrite.

Come meet Lucy Cheung and Patrick Gildersleeves, the design duo behind YUK FUN; you’ll have the chance to buy their wares in a small pop-up shop, followed by a small talk as Lucy and Patrick share how they made a business of doodling. They’ll discuss how they created their brand of colourful products combining drawing and screen-printing, and what it’s like to sell at markets, whilst drawing a community of customers.

Yuk Fun will be part of 21 Day Conversation, a celebration of 42 artists, curated by Annette Fernando. The conversation comprises a pop-up shop and event space in West Brompton from 9th – 29th January, with a different pair of artists-in-residence daily. A selection of Yuk Fun products will be available for sale at the shop and BONUS! Patrick will likely be drawing live on the day prior to the talk.

Please note that the talk will be on 26 Lillie Road, London, SW6 1TS, while the shop will be at 18 Lillie Road.

Also note that the ticket is only required for the talk. It’s free to visit the pop-up shop any day from 11am – 7pm, 9th – 29th of January, but YUK FUN will only be present on 24th January, and the shop will close early on this day for the talk.
