Coral Carnival

We’re thrilled to be part of a creative programme at Hastings Contemporary this summer! Our drop-in, hands-on art event welcomes all ages to explore ocean ecology and the effects of climate change on coral reefs. Using colourful materials, participants can shape their own coral forms while learning about healthy and stressed coral in a playful, accessible way. This will inspire creativity, empathy, and care for the environment.

Hastings Contemporary is a bold and independent art gallery and exhibition space on the seafront in Hastings Old Town. Located on the town’s historic fishing beach, it showcases modern and contemporary art while bringing inspiring cultural experiences to the coastal community through exhibitions, events, and collaborative projects.

Keep an eye out for more details in our upcoming newsletter - a perfect reason to escape the city and enjoy a creative summer trip by the sea!
