SOLD OUT! Join the waiting list now

Wow! Both the first and second rounds of Lilla’s small-group mentorship intensive, Inner Circle, completely sold out – get on the waiting list now to be first to hear when it opens again! Inner Circle is the opportunity of a lifetime to mine Lilla’s wisdom and experience gleaned from 40 years in the creative industry, as an art agent, an illustrator, an author, a columnist, an educator, a speaker and more. With places strictly limited to just 12 participants to allow for plenty of support and guidance, Inner Circle quickly sold out both times we ran it in 2025. Here’s all the participants from the very first round of Inner Circle in one of their weekly Zooms with Lilla.
