Artists and other creative professionals required to contribute to a Public Realm Strategy for Margate, Kent

Margate Renewal Partnership is looking for creative people with a good working knowledge of Margate and its communities to contribute to the development of Margate's public realm strategy.

Integral to the strategy process is establishing a Creative Advisory Group that will work alongside the appointed consultant. Margate is developing its creative narrative, most notably with an expanding Creative Quarter in the Old Town and the Turner Contemporary Art Gallery. A key strand of this work is placing innovation and creativity into the heart of the public realm (streets, roads and public spaces).

Your role will be to work alongside other members of the Creative Advisory Group during workshops and bring knowledge of Margate and a creative perspective to the public realm planning and consultation process.
