SC22121 - Kent Downs AONB Unit Cross-Channel Geopark 'Festival of the Landscape'

The Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) Unit is seeking to commission or support an arts-based Festival that will build public awareness of, engagement with, and general support for the Cross-Channel Geopark and the bid for UNESCO Global Geopark status. The Council are seeking to collaborate with an arts-based organisation to promote and deliver an arts-led programme of events under the working title 'Festival of the Landscape' which will include some artworks or performances that will be central to the programme, supported by a variety of other events that may or may not be arts-specific (e.g. walks, talks, workshops, schools/education activities). This requirement could either support existing, planned work which would be developed or reframed to deliver the requirement, or be a new commission in its own right.
