Ventnor Exchange is 8 years old! How cool is that?

Join us as we celebrate our 8th Birthday with a whole day of fun and activities! We’ll have free cake and tea on offer all day, as well as lots of interesting craft activities for both adults and children. Many of the creative clubs and groups who use Ventnor Exchange regularly will also be performing including our Community Choir, Spoken Word Collective and the Ukulele Group.

In the evening local treasures the Ventnor Darlings will be performing their cabaret songs for those who would like a good sing along!

The whole day is free but donations are welcome. Ventnor Exchange is a not for profit social enterprise which means any money we make through our events and bar we put back into creating:
