ArtEZ and Kunstbende join forces to show young creative talent the way
Kunstbende is the stagefor everyone aged between 13 and 19. Via kunstbende.nl, every young maker aged between 13 and 19 inclusive can apply to join the KLUB: a community in which you discover, develop and share your creativity with others. Members can apply for the categories Dance, DJ, Expo, Fashion, Film, Music, Language or Theatre and take part in various workshops and preparatory rounds. In April, thousands of young people will present their work to a jury during the preparatory rounds in each province. The best acts will go onto the final during the Kunstbende Young Creators Festival.
ArtEZ is one of the main partners of Kunstbende. Our shared mission is to make art and culture accessible to all and to encourage young people to make the most of their artistic talent. Together we show young creative talent the way.
Together we fulfil artistic potential
ArtEZ has been one the main partners of Kunstbende since 2005. Our joint mission is to make art and culture accessible to everyone and to encourage young talent to fulfil their artistic potential. We have formulated a joint goal to inform, inspire and help young people navigate their way through the art and education in arts courses.
In recent years, the partnership has helped many Kunstbende finalists develop their talent via masterclasses at ArtEZ and in the finalists' weekend of Kunstbende. During the Kunstbende event Meet the Industry, teachers and students from ArtEZ shared experiences about studying at an art school.
Since 2022, the focus is set on jointly showing creative young talent the way towards education in art. This means that we will communicate jointly with our target groups in the framework of ArtEZ finals, Kunstbende preparatory rounds and workshops and ArtEZ open days, and that Kunstbende and students and staff at ArtEZ will talk to each other during Meet the Industry.
Familiar with the creative world
During the Kunstbende event Meet the Industry, young makers and people working in the creative industry met each other.
