The Kent Museum of the Moving Image opened in Deal, Kent in April 2018.[1] The museum was created by David Francis, with his wife Jocelyn Marsh [2] (daughter of award-winning production designer Terence Marsh). Francis was one of the lead members who created the Museum of the Moving Image in London.[3] The 'Kent MOMI' stands at the top of Stanhope Road in Deal, on the site of a disused care home and opposite the town's main entertainment venue, the Astor Theatre.

Exhibitions
[edit | edit source]The museum currently hosts three exhibitions, none of which is permanent. 35,000 Years to Catch a Shadow: A Reflective Exhibition[4], challenges visitors to explore the Phenomenon, Arts, and Technologies of the Shadow; Passport to Ealing: The Films and Their Posters, 1938–1958, is a major retrospective of a unique moment in cinema history; and an exhibition of vintage and historic Vinten cameras and equipment, made possible by the Vinten family.[5]
A previous, inaugural exhibition provided a colourful review of The Royal Polytechnic Institution and Multi-Media Victorian London.
