Between 12:00 and 16:00, head to the ground floor for the Rembrandt Challenge! Join us in creating a unique piece of art and help us paint Rembrandt’s famous Nachtwacht (The Night Watch). Painting experience is not required. Someone will be there to guide you with your contribution to this unique work of art.

We will apply a time slot of 15 minutes per person. After signing up, you will receive more information about your exact time slot as soon as possible. Sign up via this link.
Come to the restaurant for Stamppot Mania! At the market stall, you can taste both traditional and innovative versions of this traditional Dutch dish. Do you opt for the old-fashioned stamppot, or are you going for a more experimental version of the dish?
Don’t miss the highlight of the week in the afternoon! At 16:00, you can attend a musical lecture by Erwin Steijlen. Erwin is a real jack-of-all-trades in the field of music, with over 20 years of experience in the music industry. A few highlights of Erwin’s career are collaborations with Shakira and Pink!, as well as the Olympic Games in Beijing. He has also worked with Netflix on shows like Shameless, The Mentalist, and Pretty Little Liars. During the lecture, Erwin will explain through examples why music is such a powerful form of communication and what you can achieve with unique music. He will also make connections between the success of music and organisations. And to make it even better: the first drink is on us!
Afterwards we’ll have our Delftse Poort quarterly drink. This includes a local beer or Dutch Gin. Even if you couldn’t attend the lecture, you’re very welcome to join this Dutch Drink. Sign up for the lecture and quarterly drink via this link.
