Dover Arts Development przewodzi projektowi Threading Together. Threading Together to międzypokoleniowy projekt artystyczny, wykorzystanie tekstyliów i fotografia skupiająca się na kulturach kulinarnych i dobrych wspomnieniach. The project is culminating in an exhibition featuring work produced by Dover Technical College Travel and Tourism students as well as by members of the wider Dover community.
W projekt zaangażowały się również niektóre lokalne niezależne kawiarnie i restauracje w Dover.
Tekstylną część projektu poprowadziła artystka Gwen Hedley, a fotografią Andrew Dennis i Benjamin Bowles.
Radny Cowan powiedział: –
“This is a wonderful example of how people of all ages can come together to create something that both looks to our future and draws on our past memories. Thoughtful and gently humorous, the photographs taken by our young people and the embroideries work together to show how proud we are of our Town and how strong we are as a united community. That this project was completed during the challenges of covid is a huge tribute to the determination and creative abilities of all those taking part. We are so pleased have been able to support the project by showing it publicly in the Dover Town Council Chamber”.
