It’s so maddening. When we SWFed together, it was so much fun & we kicked so much ass. The way it’s just presumed we don’t know shit about the game😩

We're sorry! We're sold out for the Shoemakers event but we’re just crossing the t's and dotting the i's on our Spring 2026 events programme 👀 so you'll be the first to hear about upcoming talks, site visits and sector discussions. #MuseumEvents #SWFed
