What an amazing night with @Cathal1978 and @stu_bailie with both fascinating exhibition.
We welcomed more than a thousand visitors last night as we opened two new shows. @Cathal1978 'Ukraine: Searching for the Normal' & @Stu_Bailie 'Visions of Hooley' both drew the crowds. Thanks to @BBCRadioUlster for having Cathal on Good Morning Ulster. Available on @bbcsounds

A closer look at the devastation of North Street Arcade, footage courtesy of @drone_ni32202. If you're angry about what you see here and how the rest of CQ's heritage is being mistreated, remember: planning is with Belfast City Council. Vote accordingly at May elections. 🗳
