Beach of Dreams

Beach of Dreams invites you to embark on a transformative journey along the UK’s coastline, where creativity, community, and the environment converge. The programme unites a diverse network of organisations, artists, and communities in a shared mission to explore and respond to the pressing climate challenges facing the UK’s coastal regions.

This national project is led by Kinetika, who will be working with commissioned artists and regional partners, whose works will emerge from deep engagement with local communities, translating coastal climate concerns into powerful artworks. These collaborations are at the heart of the programme, bringing together local voices and artistic vision to create lasting impact. Activate will be presenting the finale event of Beach of Dreams in September 2025, as part of our Inside Out Dorset festival. It will be a commission from Jayachandran Palazhy, Artistic Director of the Attakkalari Centre for Movement Arts in Bengaluru, India.
