Art Weekend Amsterdam

Dance, music & art

Are you ready for two days full of creativity? During Art Weekend Amsterdam, you’ll explore dance, music and visual art in a two-day tailor-made workshop. The classes are taught by professional teachers who create an inspiring and safe environment.

In collaboration with United Dance, Dutch National Opera & Ballet presents a special art weekend for young people with Down syndrome (ages 10 and up). Under the guidance of Boris Richir, artistic director of United Dance, participants take part in dance workshops focused on expression and joy. They also join a music workshop, where they explore different instruments and create their own score, and a design-and-make workshop, where they experiment with materials and costume design.
