CWILL BC is offering a children’s book illustrator master class. As a rule, CWILL BC’s author and illustrator master classes are only open to CWILL BC members. But for this one, they’ve opened up a couple of spots to non-members. (There are literally only a couple of seats left – so move fast if you want to take part!) Full details on the CWILL BC blog.
