A space for ideas and art in Chatham
Welcome to Sun Pier House
We’re a not-for-profit organisation, working to support artists and creative industries in Medway.
Sun Pier House CIC was formed in 2013 to support Medway’s unique creative culture. We offer a base for established and start-up artists to develop their practice, and we deliver a varied exhibition and arts programme.
Split over three floors our art space 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.
NEWS! BIG plans for 2025
While the building has been closed to the public during our building refurbishments, we’ve been working really hard behind the scenes to develop some exciting new partnerships and projects for 2025.

The Anchor is an after-class social club where 15 -18 year olds can stop by for a drink, get creative, learn something new, or just chill with friends.
Run by experienced and supportive staff from Medway Youth, it’s a welcoming space where everyone can be themselves, feel included, and have fun.
