This is an exhibition drawing together some of the projects involved in this year’s Fringe festival.

During this September and October, Folkestone Fringe curated Flint & Clay, a town-wide programme shaped by three questions: What connects us? What divides us? What new futures can we imagine together?

The Fringe wove together 35 artist-led projects across the town, created moments for conversation with residents, reflected on creative encounters and shared experiences, and exchanged feelings and stories.

Across Folkestone, artists and communities collected, pressed, stitched, spun, glued, painted, and performed together, exploring how creativity can help us hold both fragility and resilience, resistance and care. It was an opportunity to see and take part in ongoing activities created in the here and now — and to imagine what we might build next, together. The question we asked throughout was: What will you shape with the flint and clay in your hands?
