Art at the Centre is a pioneering scheme
funded by Swale Borough Council, Arts Council South East and
Kent County Council. It seeks to embed creativity within
regeneration practice across the region, engaging artists to
develop projects and community events in the heart of key
projects across the Borough. Art at the Centre aims to
contribute to regeneration teams that cut across Council
departments, as well as the public, private and voluntary
sectors, with a belief that sustainable regeneration needs
to invest in people as much as places.
The Aims of Art at the Centre
Aim 1: To develop an
exemplary model of how art can become an integral part of
the regeneration process
Aim 2: To stimulate
involvement and engagement of local communities in the
regeneration process
Aim 3: To establish a
greater reputation for quality art (both public art and arts
activities)
Aim 4: To facilitate and
enhance artists’ collective presence as a creative industry
Aim 5: To recognise and
capture the existing qualities and identity of the area
Aim 6: To forge
partnerships and create networks
