Food & Drink

Sun Pier House (SPh) is a space for artists, creative businesses, production and arts exchange.

Located in North Kent, SPh is a not-for-profit organisation. We have transformed an empty office building alongside the River Medway in Chatham. 

Split over three floors our award-winning venue is home to artist studios, an exhibition gallery, events space, hire rooms, cafe and workshop space – all enjoying a glorious panoramic view of the River Medway. See the website for details of the latest exhibitions. 

The Riverside Gallery

The Riverside Gallery at Sun Pier House is a truly unique space to exhibit.

The gallery offers a large open space on the 2nd floor at Sun Pier House. Located alongside the River Medway, the room benefits from beautiful river views and natural light. The opening hours for the gallery can alter depending on each exhibition and our events programme, please check before you travel.

Opened in 2014, the gallery space has hosted many shows with work on show by high profile artists such as Damien Hirst, Tracey Emin, Bartosz Beda, and Billy Childish.

With plenty of wall and floor space, and natural light flooding the rooms, the gallery is the ideal venue for a wide range of wall mounted, installation and performance art. For more details on the gallery, click here.
