We believe a place with a roof, a sound system and people inside should not be shut during the hours nobody is using it. So we open it to people who make things and have nowhere to make them: it is programmed with the community, it charges what it costs, and what comes in stays in the project. Many of our members are part of the culture first-hand —musicians, artists, makers— which is why we always back culture, and local culture most of all.
Bands from the city playing between the bowl and the street area. Small capacity, free entry and a social purpose: we work with local bands to give them somewhere to gather with their people and play their songs.
Walls to paint, materials and a warehouse to try things out. Whoever paints the place leaves work behind and takes away somewhere to work.
The warehouse lent to groups from Gasteiz for rehearsals, workshops, shoots and builds. The afternoons we do not use are useful to someone.
We are not a music venue or a community centre: we are a sports warehouse that opens up. This is what is actually here, so nobody turns up counting on what we do not have.
There is no open call and there are no deadlines. We talk and see whether it fits.
Tell us what it is, how many people you expect and what you need from the space.
We check the calendar, the free hours and what has to be built. If it does not fit, you hear that quickly.
Date, build, who brings what, and how anything that comes in gets shared out — if anything does.
It goes up in the calendar and gets built between whoever proposed it and people from the association.
None of this can take space away from members: it is programmed in free hours and announced in advance. We are an association with a place of its own, not a venue for hire, and that difference is exactly what makes this affordable.
A gig, a workshop, a shoot or a half-finished idea. Write to us and we will talk it through.
