Creative Community Heesterveld

The colourful Heesterveld Creative Community is nestled in an unlikely location between the motorway and office buildings. In the past, this block of flats was a no-go area, but these days it has been transformed into a lively cultural breeding ground, with ateliers in the former basement storage rooms and the artists' homes above.

Art and culture

Painters, filmmakers, rappers and graffiti artists arrive here from all corners of the world and regularly organise exhibitions and networking events. Visit Gillry Zoh for example, who also runs a Bed & Breakfast, or Oma Ietje, a small, cosy and sustainable venue offering homemade tarts, salads and sandwiches
