Fridays at the Riverside Gallery and Cafe are made for families ☀️

Free creative activities for little ones, free WiFi and games for teens and good coffee and cake for the grown ups 🍰

It’s the last day of half-term, so if you’re running out of ideas, come and spend an hour or two by the river, counting swans, doodling away or just slowing down for a while.

Since 2013, we’ve transformed two empty commercial buildings into a thriving arts space, now home to 33 professional artists and makers

Our very first studio resident moved in at the start of our journey in January 2013, and since then, we’ve welcomed over a hundred artists into our studios spaces 🧡

As parents ourselves, we know how hard it can be to find something to do at the weekend that genuinely works for the whole family. That’s exactly why we created Sun Pier Sounds – Family Show.

It’s a relaxed Saturday afternoon where younger ones can safely roam, colour, read books and just be themselves, while you get to enjoy a proper grown-up moment, a drink in hand, live music from brilliant local artists, and maybe even a little nostalgia for your wilder days...

We’ve always wanted Sun Pier House to feel welcoming for everyone, and these afternoons are some of our favourites, chilled, friendly, and full of good music and good people.

Saturday 23rd May, café open from 10am live music from 2.30pm.

Wow, another amazing market weekend 🖤
