Something to look at...

So introducing ourselves.
We are a group of artist, curators, academicians, chefs, activists from various places across the world.

We currently live and work in Amsterdam.

In this multicultural city, We felt a need for a space for conversation, acting, enacting towards what's around us, and what's happening in the world.

“Current”, is a playful encounter with the canals of Amsterdam. It is a space for acting and thinking with the flow of water. "
A performance space cm cafe reflects on ecology, nature and the city through art, performance and food. It will become a space for us to get together as a community and make these canals of the city our muse.

We are initiating this space, with the vision of: “To create a community space for arts, culture and solidarity inspired by the spirit of the flow of water and life on the canals of the city of Amsterdam.”

We host performances, talks, discussions, solidarity. For now, we will be working twice in a month, and will slowly lead to every weekend.

Let's come and think together, what we want and how we want to develop it.

Welcome
