Gemeenschapscentrum De Vaartkapoen, commonly abbreviated VK, is a community centre in Molenbeek-Saint-Jean, a municipality of the Brussels-Capital Region in Belgium, located on Rue Saint-Joseph. The centre was officially inaugurated on November 10, 1984, by Karel Poma, then vice-president of the Flemish Executive and Minister of Culture, after the idea for it had been approved around 1974; its concert programme was founded in 1989 on a concept by Marc Crooman with assistance from Fons Noeyens. The building underwent renovation between 2019 and 2023 and reopened on November 22, 2023.
