ALICE BILLING HOUSE

Grow Studios is working with the Creative Land Trust (CLT) and LB Newham to provide studio space at Alice Billing House in Stratford.

Alice Billing House is one of Newham’s most historic buildings located on Stratford’s historic High Street. The studios are made up of two blocks, one of which is a Grade II listed building, built in 1905-6 as firefighter’s accommodation for the West Ham Fire Brigade. The South block opened in January 2024 and is now creative home to over 12 artists. The CLT are currently fundraising to be able to convert the 2nd block into more studio space.

ARTIST STUDIOS

The buildings make a perfect space to repurpose into studios for artists to make their creative home. In addition to the studios, activities and events for the local community will be hosting in its project space.

ARCHIVE

In 2024, Grow Studios will be working with artists and community groups to explore the hidden history of Alice Billings and Alice Billings House in an experimental project called Archive.
