From Shadows to Film ... and all the magic in between. Kent MOMI is a not-for-profit museum that explores the deep history of the moving and projected image — from the days of candle-lit magic lantern performances and hand-painted slides, through Victorian visual experimentation, to the advent and the heyday of the cinema. The museum is situated in the heart of the picturesque Kent seaside town of Deal, two minutes' walk from Deal Railway Station and Deal Pier and Seafront. We believe in community and access. All our exhibitions are changing "special" exhibitions — so there will always be something new to see.

Right on the edge of town, this community project is a charming destination for a stroll along the seafront. A lot of hard work by volunteers has made this a very pleasant place to take a seat and just breathe in the sea air.
