Thanet Alive: Awakenings

23 – 27 September 2026
Private view: Wednesday 23 September, 6 – 8.30pm
Free entry
Mast, 31–33 High Street, Margate CT9 1DX

Thanet Alive returns to Mast for its second year, continuing as a free platform for emerging artists connected to Thanet.

Awakenings gathers artists bound to this place by lived experience, memory or artistic practice. Rather than resolving those differences into a single view, the exhibition holds them together — a collective moment of attention to the creative energy moving through Thanet now.

Spanning a range of media and approaches, the works invite discussion: about what is made here, about the ideas the works carry, and about the voices behind them — voices rising to be heard above the roar of the waves.

Awakenings responds to a society continually becoming more self-aware, and proposes that within this one place exist many worlds, each waiting to be discovered.
