ABOUT

From pop-up exhibitions to multi-day art fairs - this is where it happens.

With its expansive layout, clean industrial aesthetic, and raw creative energy, it’s a space that speaks directly to artists, curators, and cultural producers who want their work to land in the real world — not just hang in it.
