Join us for a special in-conversation event celebrating the rich legacy of British textile design with renowned designer Sarah Campbell and curator Teresa Collenette, author of the new book Paint! Pattern! Print! The Textiles of Susan Collier and Sarah Campbell.

In this lively and insightful discussion, Sarah Campbell will reflect on her extraordinary creative partnership with her late sister Susan Collier, tracing their journey from girlhood to becoming one of the most influential textile duos of the 20th century. Together, they brought bold colour, expressive line, and painterly pattern into homes across Britain and beyond — collaborating with leading manufacturers and shaping the look of modern interiors for decades.

This new book offers an intimate and beautifully illustrated exploration of their studio practice, creative process, and enduring impact on contemporary design. Drawing on original sketches, archival photographs, and personal reflections, it captures the spirit of experimentation and joyful innovation that still defines Sarah’s work.

Expect an engaging evening of conversation as Sarah and Teresa discuss artistic collaboration, the evolution of print and pattern, and the stories behind some of Sarah's most iconic designs and her continued creative output. There will be an opportunity for audience questions, and copies of Paint! Pattern! Print! will be available for purchase and signing.

Whether you are a design enthusiast, a student, or simply passionate about pattern and colour, this is a rare opportunity to hear first-hand from one of Britain’s most celebrated textile designers.
