11 June – 13 June
Open Call Events
Four ideas, four events. A city-wide open call to propose live events.

Buro Stedelijk invites artists and creatives to present their own event on 11 and 13 June. With this open call, we are looking for formats that bring together unexpected combinations – types of programming, communities, or ways of gathering that don't usually meet, but somehow make sense together. We are especially interested in events that feel alive, generous, and experiment with new forms of audience participation. We welcome all to apply through the pink button above.

This could be

a workshop that turns into a performance

a pop-up salon and archiving session

a format that mixes audiences, disciplines, or energies

The events can take up to 2,5 hours and take place on either 11 June (13.30 and 18.30) and 13 June (10.30 and 14.30).

Proposals will be reviewed by Buro Stedelijk Curator Jo-Lene Ong, Project Manager Anouk van Amsterdam, and two Blikopeners of the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.
