Sandhurst Farm Forge Collective has come about gradually over the last 30 years.We moved into Sandhurst Farm and opened the Forge in 1995. There was already a Stableblock for Bed and Breakfast onsite. There have been various changes over time and the Accomodation is now a self catering Unit. We are situated in some wonderful countryside with an abundance of walks to suit all levels. Our whole fami
ly has been hugely influenced by our surroundings, and in turn this has influenced how we work as artists. We are close to the Market Town of Faversham which is also home to many other artists and art venues. Our collective includes : Charles Dickinson a third generation blacksmith with over 40 years experience, now concentrateing on creating a collection of artworks for exhibition, and no longer working on commision. Kate Dickinson ,a retired Bretton Hall (Yorkshire Sculpture Park) trained Textile teacher now concentrating on Spinning ,weaving and natural dyeing. The younger generation of Dickinsons ...Will Dickinson a wood turner/sculptor and Isabel Dickinson Ceramic Artist, who both studied at De Montfort University have selections of work within the collective and for sale in our onsite gallery, and other exhibition venues. We have often been asked if we do taster sessions ,and have started to offer these in ceramics, forgework and wheel spinning. All sessions are on a one to one basis,for the best experience.If you are interested please enquire by contacting us by the details below.
