Every Thursday night a Detour Guide takes you on a free Detour through one of the exhibitions on display at Het Nieuwe Instituut.

Concept of Space: (Re)claiming Ownership
Conversation (€7,50 / €3,75)
During this event the members of Submerged Heritage - Miguel Peres dos Santos, Vincent van Velsen and Daphne Bakker - are joined by Dele Adeyemo, artist and curator of Wey Dey Move. Together they will take us on a journey from Suriname to Nigeria. Through conversation they reflect on the colonial infrastructures that are still being upheld today, such as the Brokopondo Dam in Suriname and the speculative urban developments in Lagos, Nigeria - both of which have huge consequences for local communities. Adeyemo focuses on the resistance of claimed space through the power of dance, whilst Peres dos Santos and Bakker will discuss forms of perseverance of cultural space. With a special performance by Poernima Gobardhan.
- 7.30-9pm
Night Shift: New Kid on the Block - Culture Caleidoscoop Launch
(Donation, Pay what you can)
Night Shift is back! After many online sessions, Night Shift has finally returned for an in-person event. This evening we celebrate the launch of Culture Caleidoscoop, a new online, peer-reviewed, open access platform about socially engaged practice in the arts, culture and heritage sectors. Night Shift talks with peers who have been engaged in this work where participation, co-creation and activism meet. What is the urgency behind this work? And what are the pitfalls?
You can get tickets to this programme component via the separate Eventbrite.
