Women In Entertainment Lighting
Women In Lighting has always been open to all women working in lighting, covering all fields such as engineering, architecture, art, entertainment, manufacturing, education, research and journalism. Initially the project was mostly focused on women working in architectural lighting but over the last 3 years we expanded the reach by inviting women working in entertainment into the project. This was done in conjunction with our entertainment lighting supporter - Ayrton Lighting - who have enabled us to ensure the door is open to women working in entertainment lighting — stage, TV, concerts, events etc.
This section of the website is now dedicated to Women working in this area of lighting and we welcome and look forward to your contributions.
