I did a session on Wednesday and it was a lovely way to spend an afternoon.

@DavidNevin @VaultArtistsNI Yes! We are somewhat moved in but still some building work happening and artists doing up their studios. We're hoping for a grand opening in September. But one of this ground floor units will be @ToolLibBelfast re-opening mid June!

@2Campbells @VaultArtistsNI Have they started moving in yet? I had a look at the weekend but couldn't see any signs of activity

Victoria Street. Vault Artist Studios have started moving into Marlborough House - former home of Tughans solicitors
