Lost Margate at the Pie Factory
6th February – 9th February, 11am to 4pm, Pie Factory Margate
An exhibition inspired by a collection of poetry, which features international artists alongside some unlikely historic artefacts, will explore the impact of waves of incomers on the North Kent town of Margate.
Where The Land Forgets Itself was written by Connor Sansby, a poet and performer born in Margate, who grew up there before the town’s current arts-led reinvention. Published in 2025, Where The Land Forgets Itself explores the idea that, as the town has been ashamed of itself for so long, it didn’t tell its own story. That left a blank space for newcomers to fill with their own narrative.
Sansby is now working with artist-curator Dan Thompson and museum designer Kate Kneale on a week-long exhibition titled Lost Margate. Rather than a straightforward exhibition about gentrification, Thompson has taken the idea that different waves of people who’ve arrived in the town mourn a different version of the town, as it is constantly rewritten by newer arrivals – a process Sansby compares to the tide washing in and out.
Lost Margate will attempt to weave all those different stories together, with a series of prints from New York-based Ellen Harvey’s The Disappointed Tourist (the originals are currently on show at Chicago Architecture Center), contact sheets from a 1990s photographic survey by French photographer Gérard Uféras, and artefacts like Patrick Abercrombie’s 1920s regeneration plans for East Kent, a collection of seaside ceramic souvenirs from Stoke-on-Trent’s Goss factory, and a stool made of wood from the listed 1921 Scenic Railway rollercoaster. The trio even chose a venue to contribute to the conversation: the pop up exhibition happens in a former pie factory in Margate’s Old Town.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a programme of events – including a talk on Margate’s Lost Cinemas by Corinna Dowling, owner of the independent Palace Cinema, a history walk by Dan Thompson, and workshops.

Book Launch: Dare to Dream
6th February, 7pm, Royal Temple Yacht Club Ramsgate
Join local world record-holding sailor, Alex Alley at Ramsgate’s Royal Temple Yacht Club
A Multiple World Record sailor, Alex has raced around the world at the highest level for many years.
He is most recently back from spending an amazing 75 days alone at sea, covering over 14,500 nautical miles, non-stop from Northern France, through the heat of the tropics and the storms of the Southern Ocean to Australia.
During this challenging trip he had to deal with broken auto pilots, the day-to-day running of a high performance yacht in challenging conditions, and making the very difficult decision to head to Australia after damage to the mast which meant he couldn’t continue on this record attempt.
Whilst hugely disappointing, it was another immense adventure, bringing out the very best in the human spirit to cope when things aren’t going your way.
All welcome to this talk & book signing.
