Vault Artist Studios has over 100 members and offers affordable studio space for multi-disciplinary artists
An art collective in Belfast is looking to the future after opening its first location in the city centre.
The collective's lease at the Shankill Mission building is for a longer period of nine years, giving the group a sense of permanency. "For ourselves, we've found that sense of community again, but we all love having people in. We had old faces who had followed us from the old building, and new people who work in the city and maybe don't know about our Late Night Art series - it's a visible spot so can attract people in."
"Everybody here is a professional artist, it can be a difficult environment with a lack of support. A lot of time arts can be pitted against important areas like health for funding. She said she is proud to be part of the community at Vault, and highlighted that it is one of the only affordable studio spaces in the city. Elaine said she's hoping their new locations will lead to more people finding out about the great projects happening within Belfast.
Sally O'Dowd and her husband Rob Hilken are both visual artists who run Studio Disco, and have both been Vaulters from the beginning too.
