As one of the UK’s leading contemporary art galleries, Turner Contemporary has played a vital role in Margate’s cultural and economic renewal. With plans to expand its offer, the gallery needed a strategy that balanced creative ambition with financial resilience.

BOP carried out a full review of the gallery’s operating model and redevelopment plans, including financial modelling, operational analysis, and new revenue strategies. We assessed visitor trends and optimised the use of retail, catering, and event spaces to strengthen income and enhance the visitor experience.

The result was a practical, future-facing plan that positions the gallery to thrive as a sustainable cultural anchor for Margate, enhancing both local community engagement and its national profile.
