The Multitudes exhibition from the 9ft in Common team is on display in the city centre on September 21 to 22

An exciting research project exploring the untapped potential of Belfast’s urban alleyways will unveil a new exhibition this week, to inspire new thinking on the use of our city’s forgotten spaces.

Steeped in folklore, hag stones are stones with a naturally occurring hole, through which, it’s believed, people can see other realms of possibility. Over this autumn equinox weekend, the exhibition will encourage people to see the creative potential of Belfast’s alleyways, and reconsider the possibilities lying just beyond our back gates.

The Multitudes exhibition is part of 9ft in Common’s, ‘A Manifesto for the Alleys’ initiative, commissioned by Belfast 2024, as part of an ambitious programme to give people the opportunity to celebrate our city in new and exciting ways. The project is led and developed by Amberlea Neely of Starling Start and Aisling Rusk of Studio idir.

“With a little imagination, these spaces can become celebrations of our nature, stories, and identities, and as we head into the magical autumnal season, we hope to inspire visitors to imagine a brighter, greener future for our alley ways.”
