The Recyclart is a hotspot key to Brussels’ cultural and artistic agenda, and was born to regenerate the abandoned buildings of the Bruxelles-Chapelle railway station. Since Brussels was European Capital of Culture, in 2010, the Recyclart has been hosting many memorable activities. It acts as a magnet connecting the surrounding neighborhoods and urban fragments.
