Welcome to the Ramsgate Arts Barge, Winter 2023 Fundraiser

The Ramsgate Arts Barge went into dry-dock at Ramsgate Slipway on 8th December 2022.
Please consider supporting our fundraiser so we can get the 1st phase of works complete.

PROJECT AIM
To create a community arts, cultural & dining space in the heart of Ramsgate Harbour. The Ramsgate Arts Barge will provide permanent access to Ramsgate Harbour for the 1st time for the entire Thanet community & visitor economy. The 700m2 space over 3 decks will comprise a community art studio, exhibition, event & performance space, restaurant & bar and biodiversity supporting top deck seated garden with views over Ramsgate marina.

SOCIAL MISSION & IMPACT
Once operational, we will provide FREE art classes, workshops and courses for children and young adults (2-18 years of age) living with the Thanet District.

PROJECT OUTCOME
The power and effect of art in a community should not be underestimated for the health, social & economical benefits it can bring. Arts have the power to improve well-being and mental health through inclusive activities and events that will unite, strengthen and create togetherness throughout the community.

FUNDRAISER AIM
Raise £75,000 towards the cost of completing the first phase of capital works (hull repairs & painting).
