Stroom participates in The Hague Contemporary Art Weekend with a special tour along a selection of public art sculptures and monuments in the City of The Hague.

Stroom Den Haag celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2020. It is known for its many activities in the field of contemporary art, but is also responsible for art in public space in The Hague. How do these works come about? Who is involved? Based on the map Let's go outside again! with highlights of 150 works of art in the city, Vincent de Boer takes you along a selection of these works. He talks about the creation of several statues and monuments in which Stroom has been closely involved in the past decades.

Do you wish to check out the sculptures of this impressive collection of artworks in the city on your own? Then pick up the free map at Stroom, Hogewal 1-9.
