Creative Folkestone

Folkestone

Creative Folkestone is a visionary arts charity dedicated to transforming Folkestone through collective creative activity, making the town a better place to live, work, play and visit.
We believe that everyone is creative, and that creativity has the power to change people and places for the better. We have developed key projects that are embedded in the creative transformation of Folkestone: Folkestone Triennial, Quarterhouse, Folkestone Artworks, Book Festival and Folkestone’s Creative Quarter.
I have worked with Creative Folkestone for 16 years. I am the Head of Curatorial which means that I manage the Triennial, Folkestone Artworks and Prospect Cottage. Folkestone is an amazing place to live and I am very lucky to be part of it’s transformational journey.
