Normally, you'll find us putting shows on in unusual places around Thanet - at Westwood Cross Shopping Centre, Turner Contemporary, Upstairs at Archive. We like to meet you on the beach at Broadstairs, driving the Dodgems at Dreamland and in the rain in Ramsgate. Obviously, we can’t do that at the moment, but we're trying to find ways to start bringing you some live work very soon. WATCH THIS SPACE.
