Breathtaking beach art which changes daily will be one of the highlights of this summer's JAM on the Marsh festival.

The annual 11-day arts celebration in the heart of Romney Marsh, which runs from Thursday, July 4 to Sunday, July 14, will feature concerts, live theatre, exhibitions and live music, with many events free.

Children go free for all events, including a Children's Sunday, which will have storytelling, clowning, nature sculptures and steam trains.
