The Quay Words team are thrilled to be joined by JoJo Spinks for this free, Heritage Open Days event, exploring the Working Class built heritage of Exeter's historic Quayside, past and present.

Wednesday 19th September, 6.30 -7.30pm
Starting from outside Exeter Custom House

The walk will take place along the Quayside near to the Custom House and will be on wheelchair accessible terrain. Please bring suitable clothes and footwear for the walking tour.

This event builds on our previous community writing workshops with JoJo and Interwoven Productions CIC where participants were inspired by their personal heritage connected to the Quayside to have a go at creative writing. We were also delighted to be joined by JoJo in 2023 for an in conversation event which celebrated the People of the West Quarter, supported by the testimony and images of those who share this Working Class heritage. You can read more about the project and event on our Quay Words website.

You can find out more about the accessibility of the Custom House on the Quay Words website access page. If you have any access needs you’d like to discuss with us before the event you can contact us on [email protected].
