The Art House was founded by Bik, Jani, Ziggy and Nina but Nina split to Lisbon like a sensible person.
Although all have a hand in the day-to-day running of the space, each has a different main area of focus. The Art House is run on collective working principles and our crew are also involved in the decisions made about how we run.
