The Shelter
 
Hi all

Know The Shelter has closed in Al Quoz and there were plans to move to Media City but does anyone know when, where etc? Have tried to call them and nothing...

Have my own office but loved working from there every now and then was a great space.

Cheers

Interesting no, a shame yes... Always reminded me of a scruffier version of Westbourne Studios...

S'okay :) I thought it was interesting considering who was running it and their backers. There is nothing on their website about the situation. You have to go to their blog for any mention of a change of location.

It suggests there will be a new venue, but why would they shut the Al Quoz building down without having anywhere else operational??

Backward thinking of course - a particular nuance here... A great shame I think - definitely a gap in the market too. Hmm....

According to my sources, the Media City Shelter is meant to be built here, on the corner of the road from DIC/MC to SZR.
