In the 2000s Folkestone’s historic town centre began to rebrand itself as a cultural hotspot. The result is the Creative Quarter, home to galleries, artists’ studios and performance spaces, as well as shops, cafes and restaurants that all have their own personality. The Creative Foundation, which launched the initiative, also opened the Quarterhouse. An anchor for the Creative Quarter, this venue has live music, film screenings, comedy and plays.
