HiFest will be a celebration of all things illustration, as well as a fun, interactive, family-friendly day just ahead of Christmas whilst raising money for charity.
Co-organiser Ali Graham says the event will have much on offer. He said: “We have over 75 top illustration guests in attendance including Roald Dahl’s illustrator Quentin Blake, Rob Ryan, Gemma Correll and Lawrence Zeegan, as well as a large group professional illustrators based here in Hastings & St Leonards. It also offers a platform for local students to showcase and sell their work.”
