Studio Souk's currently my favourite shop and is a charitable organisation which supports local artists, designers and craftspeople. Everything in-store is unique, interesting, affordable and beautiful. A perfect treat for yourself or gift for a friend. The ethos of supporting local creators is wonderful plus there's a cool, open plan, art studio feel to Souk. If you find yourself in Belfast, seek it out and visit. I promise you won't regret it
There's a cafe, picture framers, jewellery, ceramics, paintings, sculptures, ornaments, clothing, furniture and books for sale. Due to the large number of creators who work in Souk there's a range of styles on display, thus there really is something to suit all tastes. I can literally spend hours rummaging around Souk. Also it's wonderful to meet the artists themselves and sometimes see them at work.
At present there isn't another place quite like Studio Souk in Belfast, but there should be as it's brilliant. A refreshing change from the norm and a beautiful oasis of uniqueness right in the centre of Belfast. read more
