Gravesend Town Pier

Gravesham Borough Council, with the support of Uber Boat by Thames Clippers, has commissioned award-winning photographer Phil Fisk to create a striking new body of work capturing the unique spirit of the Thames Estuary.

The result is In Transit, a free public photography exhibition taking place at Gravesend Town Pier, the oldest working iron pier in the world on Saturday 11 & Sunday 12 October, from 9am to 5pm each day.

The exhibition features evocative riverscapes of the ever-shifting Thames Estuary, alongside compelling portraits of the people of Gravesend – offering a powerful reflection on the life and movement of the riverside community. The photographs will be available for sale and a limited selection will remain at the Town Pier, for visitors to enjoy.

Two special events will accompany the exhibition, both are free to attend but pre-booking is required for the workshop as numbers are limited.
