PARTICIPATE

by Geoffrey Chambers

Participate is a day made up of challenged and weighted social experiment events arranged to highlight privilege, social disadvantage, race and ableism. Taking the form of a country or village fayre,  the events planned, whilst familiar, will chime with the message of Black History Month that coincides with Margate now.

Participate takes as its inspiration the $100 race and Jane Elliott's Blue eye/Brown eye experiment.

Particpate is a live event happening during Margate Festival between Sept 25 to October 11. (Exact date to be confirmed)
