Santo is a diverse atelier for culture, art, sports, ecology and well-being.

The former fire station in Gentbrugge is temporarily used as a space for ateliers and exhibitions of artists as well as a sports hall where boxing, skating and soccer can be practiced. In addition, there is a bar 'Kantine 112' and a farmers' market.

Xuas, also known as Huascaya is a Ghent painter.

His style is characterized by influences from psychedelic art and a recognizable use of colours with many contrasts. Space and elements of nature are also recurring themes in his work.
