First Friday: People Dem Collective

Join People Dem Collective at Turner Contemporary on 1st October for workshops celebrating Black History Month as part of a collaboration across Kent with Cohesion Plus and North Kent Caribbean Network.

As part of First Friday Margate the event will start at 7pm and will launch People Dem Collective’s Margate to Minneapolis – ‘Come Stand With Us’ legacy project. In collaboration with local artist Kate Harrison you are invited to a miniature model making session. Be the first people to add the mini you and stand in solidarity as part of this collaborative installation, which will replicate the scenes from the Margate to Minneapolis march.

Of course, People Dem Collective will be bringing you the flavour and spice, you can expect an exciting kitchen takeover with some musical surprises.

People Dem Collective was founded by members of the Black, Brown and Diaspora communities. The collective was born out of a lived experience of lack of space, engagement and inclusion for these communities and a desire to encourage healing and transformation.

First Friday Margate is a free event showcasing the town’s creative community.
