Welcome to White Nave

White Nave is a Community Interest Company set up to provide a professional support mechanism for emerging and practicing artists in Kent and to bring together artists, business and the community. Currently based in Dover where we aim to contribute to the regeneration process and the continuing development of the district's cultural footprint.

We intend to provide opportunities for Kent artists to increase their visibility and develop their practice, for organisations to collaborate and for local communities to engage in a range of projects and workshops in and around Dover.

We currently host a professional support group for graduated fine artists, the Artists' Fulcrum, and are preparing to launch a further membership group for designer-makers and crafts people, Kent Artisans, use menu above for more information. White Nave manage the new Charlton Art Centre in Dover in partnership with property group Targetfollow, which owns the Charlton Shopping Centre and is also committed to encouraging and supporting art in local communities.
