As part of the Gravesham Franklin Festival, we would like to invite artists to submit work on the theme of Arctic and/or Discovery.
The Gravesham Franklin Festival is a cultural celebration of the town’s rich riverside heritage. Set to take place in September 2024, the festival will be a combination of artist-led activity, heritage walks, talks, community engagement, and will reference our links with the final voyage of Sir John Franklin whose expedition left Greenhithe in 1845 in a beleaguered attempt to discover the Northwest Passage.
The exhibition at St George’s Arts Centre, will run from 17 – 29 September 2024.
