MSL celebrates individual creativity, community and place. We create performances, exhibitions and installations that engage and inspire people, and transform communities.
Beach Of Dreams
Beach of Dreams is a country-wide celebration of the UK coastline. The people of Hastings and Rother will take part in activities celebrating our very own coast and become part of the international Beach of Dreams 2025 celebrations. MSL want to make sure everyone who wants to join in has the chance to.

Our Flag Procession
Our procession on Saturday 31st August led from West St Leonards Lido to Hastings’ West Hill. Dozens of walkers carried beautiful hand-dyed pennants to plant in a breathtaking array overlooking the sea.
There was an opportunity to meet Anders Lustgarten, who was collecting stories of the coast and a pennant-making workshop for all ages with Radiator Arts.
MSL’s digital arts and heritage project, Tressell’s Children, was a ground-breaking project inspired by working-class experiences in Hastings and Medway. The people of the towns created an immersive museum experience of working-class lives.
MSL Digital creates performances, workshops, exhibitions, and installations that celebrate heritage, community and place. We bring digital solutions to heritage narratives to provide a more immersive, inclusive experience.
