About Sun Pier House.
Sun Pier House CIC is a creative arts space and venue in North Kent, located in a former bank and commercial office block alongside the River Medway in Chatham.

The Community Interest Company was formed in 2013 to promote and support Medway’s creative industries.

Across the 3 floors we have converted the empty offices into a large exhibition Gallery, a characterful venue, 20 artist studios, 2 art workshop rooms, a meeting room available to hire, and are home to Escape Plan event games!

We’re a small family business with big ambition! Set up and run by Medway residents Heather and Ed, Sun Pier House is an evolving project that started by accident in 2012.
