BIFPA in-conversation: 'You had to be there'

Our project - WATER WORKS - shifts our attention towards the River Lagan, the harbour and other water systems in Belfast. WATER WORKS spearheads a transformative journey, rediscovering our pre-industrial, vernacular boatbuilding histories, urban and maritime developments and future planning, and use of some of our greatest assets: the waterways in and around our city.Together, we can envisage a future where our river is rejuvenated, celebrated and used by all its residents, and where community engagement and creative expression take centre stage.
