To commemorate Madge’s extraordinary life, a blue plaque was unveiled at the flat she was born in at 71 Walthamstow High Street, on Thursday 8th March 2018. This marked the beginning of a programme of events taking place until Autumn 2019 curated by Sophie Dutton. 

Waltham Forest Council is supporting the programme with an art development grant and mapping and heritage trail, with art walks around key sites associated with the artist. They and Sophie are creating an interactive digital heritage map, freely accessible online, tracing Gill’s places of residence, work and séances – telling the story of her life and art through archival photos, videos, reproductions of artworks, and commentary.
