The White House is a unique arts venue on Dagenham’s Becontree estate, where creativity meets community through engaging collaborations.
The White House, established by Create London in 2016, is a vibrant space where artists live and work alongside the local community.
A creative hub for all!
Offering a diverse public programme, the venue hosts everything from poetry readings to gardening workshops. It’s a place where the boundaries between art and daily life blur, creating an inviting environment for local residents to get involved and contribute their ideas.
The White House has welcomed seven artists-in-residence, whose work is shaped by the community around them. From site-specific theatre to history talks, the venue’s varied events challenge traditional art world structures, encouraging democratic decision-making. The ongoing Front Room Programme, from arts and crafts classes to coffee mornings, ensures there's something for everyone.
The White House isn’t just about exhibitions – it’s about people. It’s a place to connect, create, and enjoy shared experiences.
