This iteration of International Clinic offers the opportunity to learn, connect and exchange with prolific creative East Asian platforms and collectives in The Netherlands through presentations, conversations, and break-out sessions, in order to deepen the understanding of the East Asian creative landscape and to network with funders and fellow designers.
This event will be followed by a network drink at Nieuwe Instituut, and coincides with our Free Thursday Night, which allows guests to visit the exhibitions for free and join a Thursday Night Detour.
