Kent
Since Turner Contemporary opened in Margate in 2011, something extraordinary has
taken place. Come through the doors, and you might encounter a new artwork, be
inspired by our current exhibition and get engrossed in an activity, tour or
conversation. From our windows, you can observe the skies and light that
inspired our namesake, JMW Turner (1775-1851), during his visits to Margate. Our
shop collaborates with local artists and makers to create something unique to
enhance your experience. Whilst you’re here, relax and enjoy something to eat in
our café which sources its menu from Kent based producers and has unrivalled
views of the harbour. Connect with us, expand your creative potential and
discover new ways of thinking.
