Dover

Our work in Dover, empowering young people to lead and make change in their communities through creativity.

What impact have Changemakers in Dover made so far?

They curated and delivered a nature and wellbeing focused fashion show, art exhibition and art trail

  • A young college student walking a catwalk for a fashion show in the town centre, dressed in clothes made from upcycled clothing
  • Four young people are in a gallery, three are looking at colourful portrait artworks and one walking past looking at other art
  • Two young college students clapping their hands at a fashion show, wearing clothes made from upcycled clothing

They designed an eco-friendly bike shelter and mural

Students at Temple Ewell Primary School worked alongside White Cliffs Countryside Partnership on this project. This commission came as a response to how young people experience nature through the River Dour and cycling/​scootering to school.

  • A section of a colourful mural with a bird, a blue butterfly and trees on it
  • Colourful mural with stencilled text that says "Temple Ewell Primary School"
  • A section of a colourful mural that has a pink sunset on water, pink butterflies and an orange sky

They created vibrant wall sculptures to be permanently displayed in Dover Smart Gallery

Young people worked with Dream Safari on this project and explored how art, architecture, and sculpture can be made accessible in public spaces.

Supporting Dover means a lot to me. Growing up here, I attended a school that emphasized creative arts and allowed me to explore various creative methods. I'm grateful for those experiences and strive to enhance arts access in Dover. I’m also passionate about supporting local organisations and the diverse events happening in town.
