Name a Seat in the Old Library

Name a seat in the Old Library Today (Thursday, April 17) the Corn Exchange Newbury are launching their Name a Seat appeal as part of their campaign to reopen the historic Newbury Old Library as a new arts hub for the community. The Name a Seat appeal gives members of the public the opportunity to be the first to name one of the brand-new seats in the Old Library studio theatre, which will open to the public later in 2025. For a minimum donation of £500 a plaque engraved with your chosen name or message (terms and conditions apply) will be fixed to your chosen seat for five years.

Can you help? The Corn Exchange say they are truly grateful to the people of Newbury for their generosity so far and are now asking everyone to help them raise the last £100,000 to see the Old Library open to the local community. Naming a seat is a very personal way to support the campaign - whether it’s in your own name, a business name, in memory of a loved one or as a gift for someone special. Anyone interested can choose the seat they would like to name, but there are a limited number of seats available, so you are encouraged to get in touch now.



Every single penny raised from the appeal will go towards the Old Library campaign to help the Corn Exchange reopen this historic building as a space devoted to using creative activity to improve the emotional, physical and mental wellbeing of our community. To name a seat or for further information please see cornexchangenew.com/oldlibrary/name-a-seat or call Claire Currie, Individual Giving Officer on 01635 582666 or email clairec@cornexchangenew.
