Creativity through Conversation & Quiz — Black History Month at Pecan

They Did I Can Too - ‘Creativity through Conversation’ Workshop & Quiz

Join us in this fun and interactive discussion and quiz to learn about fascinating figures in British history.

Ngozi, the founder of They Did I Can Too, returns to Pecan with her enlightening, thought-provoking, and fun black history quiz.

‘Creativity through Conversation’ commemorates the 150th anniversary of British composer and conductor Samuel Coleridge-Taylor's birth. Ngozi will guide us through this year’s tribute to his musical contributions and lasting legacy.

This event will also honour the contributions of physician Dr. Cecil Belfield Clarke and musician George Bridgetower, celebrating their significant impact on the arts and medicine. All three have a significant cultural connection to Southwark and South London.
