It was 2004 that I moved to Belfast to find work, and @PLACENI had just opened. It’s a tragedy to learn that it’s closing for good.

This is a real travesty to be honest. @PLACENI have done some amazing this in Northern Ireland and Belfast and their work and enthusiasm will be sorely missed

So sad that @PLACENI will be closing, such an inspiring body of work, and a great festival too that will be sorely missed in the city. Respect to the staff team.

Last chance to buy our books, prints and editions from PLACE this week. We’re closed on Friday this week (not for good - yet) and will be boxing everything up from Thursday afternoon onwards, so get them while you can!

Hopefully the outrage of hundreds of supporters will reach the ears of those who can address this.

Facing challenges such as climate emergency, spatial and social justice and the privatisation and commercialisation of cities can only be addressed with organisations that link communities to design and strategy, involving different stakeholders in creative ways.

Place should be funded directly by departments of Economy and Communities. It should be in the interest of local and regional government to support an organisation that advocates for inclusive design, architecture and urbanism.

Place is the only organisation in NI that links communities to the built environment, that highlights and enhances the value of the spaces and places we all live in, involving people of different ages, classes, ethnicities and abilities.
