Margate Bank Holiday May Saturday 2017 Toast Turner Contemporary and Dreamland photos

I went to Margate today mainly to visit the new Turner Contemporary exhibition and to look at the newly reopened Dreamland.

I enjoyed both, so several significant art exhibitions in Turner Contemporary, Dreamland and Margate Old Town, I will try and do some sort of write up on them eventually. I particularly enjoyed the Michael Armitage exhibition in Turner Contemporary with its strong Impressionist influences both in style and colours and the Barry Kirk exhibition at Dreamland.

Here are the photos I too today, unedited from my camera card pasted straight onto my website.

I got to the Turner Contemporary Café just in time, and this time I did get tea and toast for breakfast

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
