Nicola Alexander

I am an Artist (NOAA) and Built Heritage Specialist (M.Phil, B.Arch) with over twenty years experience working in the built environment across diverse contexts, which includes South Africa, Namibia and Canada. As chairperson of the Municipal Heritage Committee, I have taken the lead on several projects to raise awareness and understanding around conservation of Timmins’ heritage. My illustrative artwork has been exhibited widely across northeastern Ontario under the umbrella of the Northern Ontario Art Association. And I offer workshops and experiences that bring a unique perspective to our understanding of place, storytelling and the importance of heritage in finding meaningful connection.
