Over the last year, groups from across the borough have been working in collaboration with local artists through the project, led by Metal and Estuary Festival and commissioned by Castle Point Borough Council.
Through engaging workshops, discussions, and immersive experiences led by local artists, alongside collaborations and conversations with archive groups, exploring the vibrant life across Canvey Island, Benfleet, Hadleigh, Thundersley and Daws Heath.
‘This is Us’ is more than just an exhibition — it’s an ongoing conversation about who we are and the future we’re building together, you are invited to add your own thoughts and reflections when you visit.
