Flint & Clay Report: Conversation, Translation and Exchange
A report by Sarah B Davies, March 2026
The Flint & Clay Report brings together the research, reflections and learning gathered across Folkestone Fringe 2025, a town-wide participatory public art programme that ran alongside the Folkestone Triennial between September and October 2025.
The report draws on observations, interviews, and feedback from artists, facilitators and creative producers who were embedded in Folkestone's streets, coastal paths, museums and community spaces throughout the festival.
The report can be read as a complete research document or dipped into section by section. It is intended as a resource for artists, cultural producers and organisations working in the public realm.
Thank you to all the funders, supporters, participants and audience!
