Stroom Invest Week 2016

The Invest Week 2016 features artists who received a PRO Invest scheme in 2015.

Invest Week 2016

Location: Stroom Den Haag, Hogewal 1-9, Den Haag
Date: June 27 - July 1 2016

The PRO Stroom Invest program supports young artists in their development and is aimed at retaining recent graduates in the city. To give young artists an additional boost, the annual Stroom Invest program is organized.

Dutch and international curators visit the studios of artists based in The Hague. Members of the PRO advisory committee also conduct studio visits as part of this program. Stroom later uses these connections to further promote the visibility of The Hague-based artists through exhibitions, presentations, and exchanges.
