Meet this month's Spotlight EAGG member, Alison Lam. Alison is a neurodivergent, interdisciplinary and socially-engaged artist.

Read all about it in the 14th in our series of interviews with inspirational EAGG members.

👭 👭 👭 What began as a small gathering of three women in 2022 has blossomed into a vibrant community of over 50 remarkable individuals. The East Asian Girl Gang (EAGG) brings together women from across Britain who share East Asian (and a few South-East Asian) roots, spanning an extraordinary range of professions—from the creative realms of fashion and art and ballet to the precision worlds of science and finance and entrepreneurship. 👭 👭 👭 Beyond our diverse career paths, we've discovered something more profound: the unexpected connections and shared experiences that unite us. When I first envisioned EAGG, my goal was simple yet meaningful—to create a space where women of all ages could forge genuine friendships, amplify our collective voice, celebrate each other's achievements, and provide mutual support based on our shared heritage. Now, watching the group evolve, I'm struck by how beautifully we've already begun to realize that vision. Sign up for our newsletter where we'll be doing our regular round up for our favourite books, eats and events for the upcoming months. So many things, so little time!
