In 2018, Framer Framed opened Werkplaats Molenwijk, a project space located in the Molenwijk neighborhood in Amsterdam-Noord. Over the past five years, Werkplaats has evolved into a vibrant space for events and projects developed in close collaboration with local initiatives, residents, artists, and activists, who were invited to contribute to the Werkplaats. Together we share and learn about the importance of creative self-expression, and the value of belonging to a place whose history the residents – old and new – have helped to forge.
To celebrate the five-year anniversary of Werkplaats Molenwijk, we present a diverse program featuring past and current collaborators who have made significant contributions to Werkplaats Molenwijk. We are also delighted to announce the presence of wethouder Meliani and stadsdeelbestuurder Esther Lagendijk. The programme commemorates our collective efforts and the valuable relationships. We warmly welcome you to join us on this festive day, where you can meet new people, learn more about the neigbourhood, and actively contribute to the future of Werkplaats Molenwijk!
