The fifth edition of the Creative Folkestone Triennial ran from Thursday 22 July – Tuesday 2 November 2021, presenting around 27 newly commissioned site-specific artworks by internationally acclaimed artists. We invited you to explore the town and explore its urban tales through dance, music, installation and virtual reality! We hope you enjoy this recap film.
