Don’t do it yourself Open Studio Night 31st of May

Another Don’t do it yourself Open Studio Night tomorrow!

 

Thursday, May 31 from 18:00 pm, there will be an Open Studio Night at Hooghiemstraplein 15, Utrecht!

Do you have a question or a problem you cannot solve? Take it with you, we will work on solutions together.

Bring something to eat/ drink with you to share, and bring a cushion in case we run out of chairs. Send me a message if you want to know how to enter the building.

 

A proposition I would like to discuss with you this evening: how do you all feel about making space during Open Studio Nights for an hour of intervision amongst the creative participants? A chance to discuss your work or reflect on one of your favourite artists etc?

 

The concept:

DDIY (Doe Het Niet Zelf) Open Studios are held regularly. Nothing can be traded for cash. The heart of the evening is to do something for each other. People arrive with a question that they themselves don’t hold the answer to.

Open Studios start around dinner time. Everyone will take their own food/ drinks and it is eaten together. Next we explore who needs what. Tasks are divided and then it’s ready to go! (in the end it is all about the action).

Don’t-do-it-yourself Utrecht is growing!

Have been cutting till late yesterday night. I made nametags with an Utrecht silhouette for a group of 30 people that came to my Don’t-do-it-yourself night today!

Don’t-do-it-yourself Open Studio

Do you remember when I was talking about having discovered this great Dutch initiative, called DDIY: don’t-do-it-yourself (in Dutch: DHNZ, doe-het-niet-zelf)?

Well… I am thinking about being their representative in my city. To begin with I will have a try out of the ‘Open Studio night’. I always used to go to Amsterdam for these lovely nights. Now I can join my own in Utrecht! (the organization already gave me the official t-shirt, as a sign of confidence, hence my cheesy happy face ;-))

Do you have a question you need help with?

 

Do you need a website, an illustration, a logo, a good letter of application, or any questions about the meaning of existence?

 

Then do come to the try-out this Thursday the 22nd of December, 18:00-23:00.
