Star turns will be provided by Ireland's Oscar hopefuls; Tomm Moore & Paul Young, aka Cartoon Saloon, will be appearing fresh from their nomination for Song Of The Sea, while Annie Atkins - the lead graphic designer behind The Grand Budapest Hotel - will also speak.
Among the international luminaries making the trip are award-winning children’s author and illustrator Tomi Ungerer, graphic designer Ian Anderson - who has designed cover artwork for Nine Inch Nails, Pulp, Design Will Eat Itself, Aphex Twin and more - and Barcelona-based graphic design company Hey Studio.
