Definitely Superior's permanent gallery is in the basement of the Eatons building, and has been there for many years. The Urban Infill temporary galleries happen all over downtown.

There's a large open space just outside the DefSup space. In recent years, it has been used as an arcade machine auction space, roller derby practice area, City Band practice area, theatre space, and until the Fire Marshall finally put his foot down, an event space for DefSup.

There was an open house in the spring for the future of Victoriaville. The options presented were A) tear it down, B) tear it down, and C) nebulous maybe repair option. It was so skewed I'm not sure they've really considered what would be needed to keep it going.
