This Must Be the Place – Open Day / Film launch

Join us for the community screening launch of This place is a message, a new film by artists Webb-Ellis, including an introduction to the film by the artists.

In a disused chalk quarry near Gravesend in the summer of 2021, Webb-Ellis collaborated with young people from the area with help from The Grand in Gravesend to co-create an imaginary world and alternative environment for learning. Using methods of philosophical enquiry, radical listening, dance, drawing and singing, the artists and young people worked together to weave a fractured narrative which became the basis for This place is a message.

Alongside the screening you can also:

Join our family-friendly art workshops, make your own zine publication and help us make a flag of your dreams and wishes for the Garden City with artists Lu Williams and Katrin Albrecht.

Find out more about our programme for young people, This Must Be the Place, which is exploring and shaping Ebbsfleet Garden City as it is built.

See the artwork created during our recent workshops with students at Ebbsfleet Academy and North Kent College.
