Welcome to Culture in Kent
Culture in Kent aims to create a space to bring together creatives and culture lovers in Kent. Here, creatives can show and explain what they do and culture lovers can find art, music and other cultural events taking place in the county.
For Culture Lovers
Culture in Kent aims to make it easy for culture lovers to find and experience the best that Kent has to offer in the arts and culture.
Our comprehensive search tool makes it easy to find events by type, location and date. So, if you’re looking for music in Margate, Art in Aylesford, Dance in Deal or photography in Faversham you can quickly discover the perfect cultural event for you. Alternatively, simply browse all events to see what piques your interest.
For Creatives
Culture in Kent wants to connect creatives with culture lovers across the county. The first step in increasing your exposure is to create a profile – tell the world who you are and what you do. A basic profile is free of charge. To make more of an impact a premium profile offers additional content and functionality.
Once you have created a profile you can list your events using our simple event page – no technical skills required! Again, to gain greater exposure you can choose a premium listing.

Contact Name: Anna-Marie
Profile Description: I work in a diversity of mediums from oil paints to mixed media and still love experimenting with new materials and techniques.
I enjoy storytelling through my paintings and use symbolism to conceal the tale. I have a strong sense for colour which has always come very naturally to me.
My influences come from the Surrealist and Pre-Raphaelites which I’m emotionally drawn to the dreamlike forms and well-painted styles.
I sell both nationally and internationally to private collectors and have worked on and welcome many commissions. I’m also represented by the Beumee Gallery in Tunbridge Wells.

Ceramics
Package: Free Profile Listing
Contact Name: Alison Proctor
Profile Description: My work ranges from functional to sculptural using whichever technique best suits the ideas I’m exploring, but always finding it’s starting point from the natural world.
I generally work with red and white earthenware clay but have also been experimenting with naturally found sea clay and reclaimed bone china.
In recent work I have been exploring the tradition of creating sprig moulds directly cast from plants and leaves.
Originally trained in dance and having worked in theatre and the arts as a Producer and Lighting designer, I have been making ceramics since graduating from a studio ceramics course at the Royal Forest of Dean College in Gloucestershire. I recently moved from Surrey to Kent, and made the transition to full time maker, setting up a studio in New Romney, located by the sea and overlooking the marshes.
I make a range of work that is inspired by the natural world around me.
Opening hours - Details: Studio open by appointment only.

Contact Name: Sue Carfrae
Profile Description: I am an artist who uses a camera.
Encouraged by Landscape photographer, Fay Godwin I gained a BA Hons in Visual Communication at KIAD and graduated with a greater understanding of conceptual thinking and how the camera can be more than simply a light box. Technically self taught and learning day by day and discovering the magical affect of light dancing upon the lens and its connection to heart and mind.
Living in Whitstable, on the North Kent coast, the sea and the shoreline are my constant inspiration

Profile Description: Professional wildlife and landscape photographer. Workshops held in the UK and overseas.
I’m a professional landscape and wildlife photographer living in Kent, England. Born in 1970, from as young as I can remember I have always had a fascination with the natural world, and from the moment I first picked up a camera (a Kodak Brownie 127) at the age of 6, I’ve been hooked!
