MAPPING MARGATE

Turner Contemporary x Draper Mills Primary School, Margate

October 2019

A collaborative project working with students from Drapers Mills Primary school and Turner Contemporary as part of Margate NOW festival, celebrating the Turner Prize coming to Margate for the 2019 edition. 

The map plots some of their places of interest, in their own words and offers a guide to the town from their perspective. The map plots a range of places, from where to eat, shop and be entertained as well as playful and seemingly strange points of interest. 

The map is on display throughout the duration of the Turner Prize 2019 on the gallery terrace, in the gallery guide, as postecards and as posters throughout the town.
