About this Event
Sam Furness is a creative leader, artist and the founder of and . His work focuses on helping people unlock their creativity through experience design that challenges perceptions, deepens connection and encourages intentional curiosity.
In 2016, he embarked on a spare time, personal challenge to immerse himself in a new creative pursuit every month for a year. This experience transformed his way of seeing the world and made him question the limiting stories we tell ourselves about our creative potential. Since that transformative year he has continued to develop the practice of immersing his creative curiosity in themes over calendar months - which he now calls ‘Questing’.
Sam and his team will be holding the first collective imagination workshop on Thursday 31st October, and you can join the first Margate Creative Quest workshop. For more info and to book your place, check out the Margate Creative Quest event.

Sam’s Questing pursuits led him to founding two organisations:
Channel Twelve is a creative impact studio designing experiences that help people and organisations unlock their creative potential. Their installation work has featured at London Design Festival, Latitude Festival and Forest of Imagination. They have also delivered workshops and learning programmes for M&C Saatchi, Creative Mornings and Academy of Impact through Music.
Creative Quests is a non-profit community platform dedicated to cultivating, creativity, curiosity and connection in people around the world. Since 2021 they have guided 1200 people in 24 countries through a series of month-long themed Quests. Exploring themes such as Sound, Colour, Rewilding, Poetry and Time.
Now, after three years of their flagship digital programme, they are exploring what a Quest could look like as place based experience…. right here in Margate!
