On Thursday morning 12 November, the culture spokespersons of Christen Unie, VVD, D'66 and Groen Links entered into a debate on culture. However, the debate organised by LACK (Landelijk Kennisinstituut Cultuureducatie en Amateurkunst) Kunsten '92, the Fund for Cultural Participation and the Boekman Foundation did not become scintillating for a moment.
The damage caused by the corona crisis for cultural associations, such as music societies and choirs, is already expected to be at least 12 million euros. This is according to an initial inventory conducted last week by KNMO, Koornetwerk Nederland, Raad van 12 and LKCA. In the cultural sector, the consequences are currently being mapped sector-wide and added to the...
They have learned something at Boekman. The foundation, which since this year has had the honour of managing the culture index, understands that trend graphs say precious little. We have observed this several times on this site, and the researchers now confirm this wholeheartedly. So this year the club is doing things differently. For the past few months, sixty wise men and women have been...

How nice it would be if Zutphen were to be Cultural Capital of the Netherlands next year, proudly representing itself and thanks to a strong impulse from its surrounding area: the province of Gelderland. They could immediately tackle the hopeless situation of the local theatre, the kids from the suburbs could also go to hip-hop in a real hall and everyone in the Netherlands would know...
There are quite a few petitions floating around these days. The most curious of all petitions was in the digital mailbox today. In it, the existing support institutes in the cultural sector urge the Lower House not to put money into new support institutes. In doing so, clubs such as the Landelijk Kennniscentrum Amateurkunst (LKCA), Cultuur+Ondernemen, and the Boekmanstichting put in a small but...
In onze participatiesamenleving is Community Art ‘hip, hot & happening’. Er zijn dan ook veel projecten en initiatieven die amateurs en professionals samenbrengen. Gelukkig maar, want hoe breder kunstuitoefening en -beleving gedeeld en gedragen worden door zoveel mogelijk mensen, hoe mooier de wereld wordt, vind ik dus.
Sinds de financiële crisis en de daaropvolgende bezuinigingen wordt de cultuursector gedwongen zichzelf te legitimeren. Met wetenschappelijk onderzoek moet het maatschappelijk resultaat van kunst en cultuur aan worden getoond. Om de culturele sector daarin bij te staan is het Landelijk Kennisinstituut voor Cultuureducatie en Amateurkunst (LKCA) daarom de zogeheten ‘feitenfabriek’ begonnen, een cijfermatig overzicht van de kerngegevens en ontwikkelingen in de…
Kantelen is in. En dat is goed zolang het kantelen inhoudt dat je een scherpe bocht neemt en met nieuw elan de vers gekozen koers volgt. Kantelen is onverstandig als je aan de rand van de afgrond staat. Want dan wordt kantelen al gauw tuimelen. De cultuureducatie is, naar ik moet vrezen, begonnen aan een tuimeling. Vorig jaar bleek dat…
In March this year the Culture Council sounded the alarm. Unique under the new leadership, which is usually extremely docile when it comes to cultural cuts. But what happens to music schools, children's drama schools, libraries and amateur orchestras is otherwise entirely up to the citizens themselves, and their local councils. This is the minister's response to the chamber.
