Explore the history of Alice Billing House through collage and conversation in this hands-on creative workshop.
Using positive and negative space art techniques, participants will create paper collages inspired by the building’s civic use between 1970 - 2000, exploring what makes this historic site so fascinating, including intriguing stories like Godfrey the ghost, who allegedly haunts the building.
You’ll learn about Alice Billing, whom the building is named after and her role as Newham’s first female ‘Inspector of Nuisances’, the official job title for Sanitation inspectors in the 19th Century.
This workshop session will blend art and history in a relaxed environment. No art experience necessary, just curiosity!
Part of the Newham Heritage Month programme of events
Led by our Artist-in-residence Sam Ikhuoria
