Join us for a special night of music in memory of Graham Dowdall aka Gagarin, who sadly passed away earlier this year. Graham was a brilliant musician, live performer, and community music practitioner, who had a great influence on the live electronic music scene. Celebrating his life and musical work we will be raising money for Arts Education Exchange, a charity based in Margate that provides creative education, training, and employment for young people.
