Some good news to share after the announcement that Block T had to vacate their premises in Smithfield a couple of months ago.
The Block T team have secured a new venue on Basin Street in Dublin 8 and are currently in the process of moving there.
As anyone with a cursory experience in going or working from a creative space knows how difficult it is to maintain a space (and as that picture makes plain, it has to be made into a workable space too).
Block T now have a new one for their studios, workshops, programmes, courses, shared spaces and facilities.
They are asking for your help via a Crowdfund to help them get off the ground and stay there to the tune of €15K.
There are lots of rewards including vinyl records, prints, tote bags and skillset course discounts all the way up to a specially commissioned artwork.
