GET IN TOUCH WITH… HALLO CULTUUR! WALKING TOURS
by Carola Eijsenring (Indigo-Wereld)
‘Get in Touch’ is a social support program for international spouses. It’s one of the packages of Indigo-Wereld, initiated by Carola Eijsenring (1954). In this program internationals ‘get in touch with’ their unknown hometown, build new social networks and get supported in their challenge to find again some anchoring in themselves. Also the ‘Get in Touch with .. Hallo Cultuur! Walking Tours’ offer you the opportunity to discover together in a group special cultural places, now during the ‘Hallo Cultuur Day’ in Eindhoven. Connected, we explore Eindhoven!
WALK 1: Ton Smits Thuis – Eindhoven Museum - Parktheater – Pand P
Start: 12 PM at the ‘Ton Smits Huis’. Closure: 2 PM at ‘Pand P’
After our visit to the Ton Smits Huis in the Genneper Parks, where we’ll enjoy his beautiful cartoons and gouaches, we’ll have a taste of bygone ages in the Prehistoric Village. Via the Sculpture Park, we’ll walk to the Parktheater where we’ll attend the festive opening of the new cultural season with a full program and the last chance to experience a bit of the ‘Best of the Fest’ event (last day).
We’ll close this Get in Touch Walk at Pand P, where we might watch an impressive literary program and some theater performances. Hallo, Cultuur!
WALK 2: Strijp-S
Start: 3 PM at Natlab (Plaza Futura). Closure: 5 PM at PopEi.
The best arthouse films you’ll get to see in Plaza Futura in Natlab: here we’ll start our tour. After a short guided tour, we’ll be walking to the MU Art Space for the exhibition ’Weather or NOT’. Nearby we’ll find the ‘Ontdekfabriek’ (‘Discovery Factory’) , where this special afternoon it’s all about ‘watch and being watched’. Hoping for some sunny Indian Summer warmth, we close our tour at the singer-songwriters of Pop Center Popei.
Give what you want
Both tours are free of admission, but maybe you’ll find it worthwhile to donate something? Gifts will be spent by Indigo-Wereld and Hallo Cultuur! for new initiatives to encourage cultural experiences in international groups.
In each Walking Tour 15-20 persons could participate.

Indigo-Wereld connects quite different worlds. Each person has his own life story, her own vision, a private history. By sharing narratives, you don’t just share knowledge, but equally important .....
