celador is a space for doing things with words.
celador was founded in 2023 by members of a reading group and is run collectively.
celador has hosted artists and writers from around the world and welcomed hundreds of visitors.
the special setting of celador, a historical private house, gives the programme a unique intimacy and proximity.
celador is located in a historical private house at Avenue Jef Lambeaux 23, a listed building designed in 1910.
celador does not organise exhibitions. only events, from one evening to a few days long. the programme unfolds freely, in a different way each time, always starting from someone’s writing or reading practice. celador also hosts a writing residency and a writing group. we are currently working towards the founding of a library and a small press that would allow us to archive and circulate texts that have been produced at celador.
