ARK is located in the former Margate Synagogue on Albert Street, just off Northdown Road in the heart of Cliftonville. Northdown Road is well served by local bus routes, including the Loop and the 8A, making the venue easy to reach by public transport. The venue is approximately a 15-minute walk from Margate Old Town and around a 30-minute walk from Margate railway station. Limited on-street parking is available nearby, with additional public car parks within walking distance. Step-free access is available via the main entrance.

Accessibility details

ARK is based in the former Margate Synagogue which was built in 1929. As such, physical access in the building is limited. Improving this is integral to the forthcoming capital project. In the meantime, however, we are doing all we can to ensure the building is as accessible as possible. We have recently installed a ground floor accessible WC - door opening 750mm. There are two steps to the main entrance and we have a portable ramp. We have no designated parking bays at present, but it is usually possible to drop-off outside the building.
