We did it, Folkestone 💛📚

✨ 2,073 of you made it happen✨

With books in hand, you turned the beach into a living, breathing library, breaking the record for the largest beach book swap ever held within one hour, surpassing 591 participants.

But honestly, it felt like more than a record.

It was the moment the bell rang and books moved down the line.

The conversations between strangers.

The families, the laughter, the stacks of stories being passed on.

This is what Folkestone is a Library is all about. Not a building, but a shared culture of reading, connection and imagination, held by all of you.

We’re so grateful to everyone who came down, brought a book, supported the day and made it what it was. And to all the partners, volunteers and teams who helped shape something so welcoming and generous.

This is just the beginning.

Something amazing started here last night ✨

FUN HOUSE made its debut at Quarterhouse, bringing together local talent, visiting artists and a crowd ready for a brilliant night of live music.

With one house band, four rising acts and energy from start to finish, this was a celebration of creativity and community.

New favourites were found, the dancefloor stayed busy and the room was full of feel-good moments.

On International Sculpture Day, we’re spotlighting Yoko Ono’s Earth Peace which was commissioned by @creativefstone for the Folkestone Triennial in 2014. Three manifestations of Earth Peace remain on loan to the town, all located at @thegrandinfolkestone:
- There is a flag, flown annually on International Peace Day;
- An inscribed stone, set in the grass on The Leas outside The Grand;
- And a message in morse code beamed out by a light over the Channel.

The Grand is next door to the former Metropole Arts Centre, where Yoko Ono staged an event in 1966. Further to the East along The Leas there are memorials to those who have lost their lives in war. As a young person, Yoko Ono witnessed the catastrophic effects of war in Japan, and the desire for peace has been a consistent message within her work as an artist, which more broadly aims to provoke thought and challenge people’s understanding both of art and of the world around them.

Warning: Yoko Ono’s morse code message, which is beamed out from the roof of The Grand, may not be suitable for people with photosensitive epilepsy.
