Anniversary weekend Vincents Tekenlokaal
Fifteen years Vincents Tekenlokaal. Fifteen years an adventure in drawing with Vincent van Gogh as inspiration. In 'our city Tilburg' where Van Gogh as a 13 year old boy took his first drawing lessons. Vincents Tekenlokaal invites all drawing enthusiasts of Tilburg and surroundings to a Jubilee weekend full of drawing fun!
On June 22 and 23, the doors of Tilburg's entire Paleis-Raadhuis will be wide open for a weekend packed with free drawing workshops, lectures, mini-exhibits, interviews, talk and think-along sessions about Tilburg and the film Loving Vincent. You will meet various prominent creators from Tilburg, including Djenné Fila (winner of the Golden Brush 2023), Jeroen de Leijer and Paul van Dongen. But also the young talents of the sign talent program De Nieuwe Vincent and makers of the Illustrada Festival that has settled in the city all week.
In addition, there will be a variety of activities that weekend at St. Anne's Square (where Van Gogh lived in a boarding house). The full Jubilee Weekend program is at www.vincentstekenlokaal.nl/jubileum.
