Een collage maken is een creatieve en ontspannende activiteit. In de workshop collage maken gaan we knippen, scheuren en plakken met bestaande materialen zoals tijdschriften, boeken, papier en karton die je samenvoegt tot een eigen unieke compositie. Bij de workshop zullen ook kaarten en enveloppen zijn om kleinere collages mee te maken; zo kun je iemand in je omgeving of jezelf tijdens de feestdagen vertroetelen met een uniek kunstcadeau.

Vixnde Brussel’s born, Rotterdam-based singer-songwriter Viana Afoumou presents the product of her life: vixnde (pronounced “viande”) - an intimate and layered exploration of sound, silence and voice, intertwined with stories and songs. Some would call it experimental pop. ''With only a loop-station, guitar and her crystal-clear voice; vixnde will touch you deeply with her intimate and pure sound'' @vixnde | youtube Jeroen Dirrix Dutch composer & producer Jeroen Dirrix seemingly lives at the crossroads of sound, where his work revolves around deep intuition. An electronic musician, producer and pianist based in Rotterdam, Dirrix simply lets his music just happen rather than building it from scratch. Combining acoustic pianos with analog synthesizers, he pours out trance-like music that ebbs and flows organically, essentially producing and playing on-the-fly. For this special night Jeroen Dirrix will perform an improvisation-based piano concert. @jeroendirrix | youtube | spotify Phantom Wizard Phantom Wizard is a composer and multidisciplinary artist whose work dissolves boundaries and reimagines traditions. Rooted in decolonial philosophy and self-taught as a multi-instrumentalist, Phantom Wizard’s artistry developed outside traditional institutions. Emerging from Amsterdam’s Southeast—a historically Caribbean and Afro-diasporic neighborhood—this environment has profoundly shaped the creative vision. It is here that the Fribari philosophy began to take shape: a fluid, untamed concept that unfolds through compositions, free improvisations, soundscapes and performances. Phantom Wizard’s sound draws from a rich tapestry of influences, weaving together textures of nature with ambient, free jazz, minimal, electronic, and the vibrant sonic palette of the Caribbean, offering a fresh perspective in contemporary music. @phantom.wizard | youtube | spotify Information Source: Multi Multi & Jeroen Dirrix | eventbrite

Ben jij klaar om jouw verhaal op een unieke manier te vertellen? Kom naar onze zine-workshop en ontdek de kracht van creatief schrijven en beeldende kunst! In deze workshop maak je je eigen zine: een mini-tijdschrift dat jij helemaal zelf vult, vouwt en vormgeeft. Wat is een zine? Een zine (uitgesproken als ‘zien’) is een klein, handgemaakt tijdschrift waarin je kunt schrijven, tekenen, knippen en plakken. Het is jouw persoonlijke podium om jouw verhaal te delen, in jouw stijl. Jouw verhaal. Jouw identiteit. Wie ben jij? Waar kom je vandaan? Wat maakt jou uniek? En hoe verbind jij je met Rotterdam? Samen gaan we in gesprek en verwerken we onze ervaringen in creatieve kunstwerkjes: jouw eigen zine. Deze zine-workshop is onderdeel van het programma Verhalen van de Stad van Bibliotheek Rotterdam. Praktische informatie: Datum: zaterdag 5 juli 2025 Tijd: 12.00 – 14.30 uur Locatie: Centrale Bibliotheek Rotterdam, Maakplaats 1e verdieping Toegang: gratis (aanmelden verplicht) Meld je snel aan en laat jouw stem horen via jouw zelfgemaakte zine!
