Free family workshops
The contributions from the Friends of CBK Zuidoost are always allocated to a special cause. This year, the funds will be used for additional free workshops for youth in Amsterdam Zuidoost, held in conjunction with special occasions. On Saturday, April 25, artist Kenneth Aidoo will lead a Royalty workshop, where children can create a royal version of themselves. On May 3, for Empathy Day, Alicia Hoost will host a workshop designed to engage all the senses.
Royalty Workshop by Kenneth Aidoo
Saturday, April 25, from 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM (doors open at 11:45 AM)
Under the guidance of artist Kenneth Aidoo, children (and their guardians) will work with oil pastels—a type of crayon based on oil paint. The objective is for everyone to create a portrait of themselves as royalty. What does that mean to you? And what does it look like? You will be working on pre-prepared paper.
Workshop for all senses by Alicia Hoost
Sunday, May 3 from 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM (doors open at 1:45 PM) Usually, you are only allowed to look at art, but now you can also feel, smell, and even wear the art. Join heritage specialist Alicia Hoost on a journey of discovery. What is it like to listen to art instead of looking at it? Or what exactly do you smell in the exhibition? The workshop lasts approximately 1.5 hours and is suitable for families, but you are also welcome if you are on your own.
