Vooruit
''Vooruit'' Arts' Centre ((オランダ語:Feestlokaal van Vooruit)) is a historic complex in the Belgian city of Ghent. ''Vooruit'' was originally the festival and art center of the Ghent-based labor movement, with a ballroom, cinema, theater, etc. It is now mainly used for concerts and other cultural events.
==History==
Vooruit was designed by Ferdinand Dierkens and built between 1911 and 1914 and became a symbol of the socialist movement in the interwar period. The building is named after the socialist consumer organization (or cooperative) ''Vooruit'' ("Forward") (1891-1970), supported by Edward Anseele, to protect workers against the instability of capitalism. There workers could eat, drink and enjoy culture at affordable costs.
As a festival and art center, ''Vooruit'' was part of the compartmentalized Flemish society until World War II. After the Second World War the building deteriorated until the re-launch in 1982 in its present form as a cultural center. In 1983 Vooruit was recognized as a listed monument. The building continued operating during the restoration process, from 1990 to 2000. In 2000, a fully restored Vooruit was awarded the Flemish Monument of the year Prize.〔(History, vooruit.be )〕
Presently the rooms are used for parties and concerts, but also for cultural events or debates.
