A new mural celebrating Margate Pride is in place outside Dreamland.

The artwork has been created by LGBTQ+ artist Hizze Fletcher as part of a project with Netflix to celebrate Pride events across the country.

Hizze created the mural, sited outside ‘Godden’s Gap,’ using a blend of techniques including acrylic, paint, paste and pens. The print outside Dreamland is part of a range of murals that the artist created in the project.

Hizze said: Programmes such as Orange is the New Black help to shine a light on the importance of  LGBTQ+ representation in popular culture. It’s great to be part of this project during an important event such as Pride.”
