The artworks are the result of an exciting 18 month school and gallery project called Art Inspiring Change where primary school aged children have been encouraged to find their voices, take the lead and show us how they think Margate should be regenerated.

Don’t miss this extraordinary community experience, show your support for the Young Art Leaders from Margate and be inspired.
