Dover Arts Development (DAD) is run by Dover-based artists Clare Smith and Joanna Jones. They are both passionate about the way in which art fosters dialogue and contributes to the strengthening of communities. DAD activities are focused on Dover Town, but its projects naturally extend to the neighbouring towns of Deal and Sandwich and further afield to the whole of Kent and beyond. They also have studio space for contemporary fine artists and creative practitioners to use.
Welcome to Dover Arts Development DAD
Dover Arts Development is run by Dover-based artists Clare Smith and Joanna Jones. Together they have worked on a wide range of arts projects and in their work they seek to engage the community and share their passion for artistic excellence and contemporary practice.
Dover Arts Development (DAD) began life as an unincorporated partnership in 2006 and incorporated as a company limited by guarantee in April 2008. Dover Arts Development Ltd has two directors, artists Clare Smith and Joanna Jones.
Dover Arts Development is committed to bringing high quality contemporary art to visitors as well as locals in and around the Dover, Deal and Sandwich area, supporting artists' practice, stimulating cultural activity in Dover, contributing to Dover's economy and making the area an exciting place to live.
The various activities of Dover Arts Development have at their heart the development of creativity and artistic practice in a real and direct way within Dover Town and community. At the same time, the reach of Dover Arts Development's projects extends well beyond the boundaries of the Town to Kent and further afield.
