Dear List Members,
Apologies for cross-posting.
The COaST (Cultural Offers at Seaside Towns) research group, based at Canterbury Christ Church University 2014 conference, Seascapes: The Cultural Life of Seaside Towns at Turner Contemporary Gallery in Margate on 28th May 2014. The conference will include access to Turner Contemporary’s newly-opened Mondrian exhibition, which launches Margate’s Summer of Colour events.
We aim to publish a selection papers from this conference and are now inviting proposals for contributions. The conference addresses the role and value of the creative and cultural industries at English coastal towns, considering the ways that material and cultural interventions contribute to patterns of economic and social change. We consider culture and creativity in the widest sense of the words, including architecture and design, live performance, the visual arts, festivals, and food and restaurants.
We invite research papers that address these issues, and anticipate a multi-disciplinary conference that will encompass a range of perspectives, including business and economics, sociology, tourism, events, social geography, cultural and media studies, social history, and the history of design and architecture.
