Good day to you all. I have some VERY exciting news! As you’ve probably gathered from the title of the post Ivor Wood is being celebrated at the one and only Manchester Animation Festival. Together with organiser Steve Henderson we’ve looked to put together an hour long conversation all about Ivor and his lifetime of work. Along with myself, I’ll be joined by Ivor’s wife Josiane and fellow researcher Joseph Wallace to answer all your questions and celebrate all of Ivor’s grand achievements spanning his whole career from The Magic Roundabout all the way through to Charlie Chalk.

The event will be happening as part of the 3 day Manchester Animation Festival between the 14th and 16th November 2017. The actual ‘in conversation’ will be happening at 10.15 on 16th November at HOME in Manchester. You can find out more about the speakers and the event in the link below and also you’ll find a link to purchase your tickets!

It’s a great honour to be able to put the this event on and really hope to see some of you Ivor Wood fans down there. Afterwards they’ll be a little meet and greet where we’ll be bringing along some Ivor goodies for you all to take a peek at. One is very special indeed and an exclusive to the festival so stay tuned for a further announcement!

We hope to see you all there and help bring Ivor Wood to the forefront of British animation and television.
