The Bee House







We are proud to be exhibiting a fantastic piece of artwork created by Sophia Jones, artist in residence for RIVA artists. Sophia spent three weeks working with year 5 children at Deptford Park Primary school to produce this fantastic piece.


The Bee House is a not only a celebration of bees and how humans depend on them but also shows an understanding of the plight they now face. Each child was given their own bee hive drawer which they decorated with a bee story, come and explore the bee house and see if you can spot Steve's story in there!


We will be exhibiting this piece in our warehouse on the 18th and 25th of January during our normal Saturday opening hours of 9 am to 2.30 pm so get yourself down to The London Honey Co HQ.



RIVA (Residencies in Visual Art) is a charity set up to place artists in schools and give children and their community the opportunity to work alongside professional artists. By doing so children are able to be involved in an intensive creative process and produce their own work individually and collectively.
