The context in which it is located, a former squat legalised and organised into a multimedia cultural centre owned by the association EHBK -first aid for the arts- has allowed 4bid to become home of many creations and a host of a number of multicultural exchanges within the fields of visual and performative arts.
In the same building you will find the following initiatives: Studio 301, concert venue, club and dance/performance stage; De Peper vegan kitchen; Supernova cinema and bar; artist ateliers on two top floors.
