Welcome to Art Centre Schiedam
Since May 2022, three art galleries: Art Gallery Voรปte, Kunstwerkt and Tone & Image have been exhibiting at a beautiful new location in Schiedam: the former post office at the oldest city park in the Netherlands. The place where stamps used to be sold and packages could be dropped off has been transformed into an attractive, accessible venue for visual art in all its forms. It caters to both young and old, art experts and art enthusiasts alike.

Art Gallery Voรปte has been independent, unconventional (sometimes to the point of nonconformity), and internationally oriented since 1994. Our style can be described as somewhat eclectic. But above all, for us, it is about quality.
Since the 1990s, Stichting KunstWerkt has brought together a large group of artists from Schiedam and the surrounding area. The foundation organizes around ten exhibitions and related activities each year.
Tone & Image is the continuation of De Fotowerkplaats. The foundation commissions Peter de Raaf (V!Ps International Art) and Wim van Zon (Music Inspired Art) to organize museum exhibitions and manage music photo archives.
In the historic city center of Schiedam, you’ll find a wealth of art and culture. The Art Route Schiedam takes you past museums, galleries, outdoor art, and studios. This allows you to discover unique cultural locations at your own pace while simultaneously exploring the city center of Schiedam.
Why Visit Schiedam ?
Schiedam is a charming Dutch city known for its historic windmills, beautiful canals, and of course, its world-renowned jenever (Dutch gin). If you’re planning a visit, make sure to check out these 10 hotspots:
1. The Schiedam Windmill District: This UNESCO World Heritage Site boasts the tallest windmills in the world and is a must-see for any visitor.
2. Art Centre Schiedam. In the former post office on Lange Nieuwstraat, the place where stamps used to be sold and packages could be dropped off, a vibrant art center has now emerged. After the location was completely demolished and renovated into separate spaces in early 2022, three cultural organizations moved in a few months later. Since then, this private initiative has developed into a center where there is always something going on during weekends. Located near the oldest city park in the Netherlands, the Plantage, it offers a valuable addition to the cultural life of Schiedam and its surroundings. More information: Art Centre Schiedam
3. The Jenever Museum: Learn about the history and production of jenever, taste different varieties, and even make your own bottle to take home.
4. The Old Town: Stroll through the quaint streets and admire the traditional Dutch architecture, including the stunning St. Janskerk.
5. The Molen De Walvisch: This 18th-century windmill has been fully restored and is now a popular venue for weddings and events.
6. The Lange Haven: Take a relaxing boat tour through the picturesque canals and see Schiedam from a different perspective.
7. The Stedelijk Museum Schiedam: Discover the city’s art and cultural heritage, including works by Dutch masters like Piet Mondriaan.
8. The Grote Markt: This bustling square is the heart of Schiedam’s social scene, with plenty of bars, cafes, and restaurants to choose from.
9. The Nolet Distillery: Visit one of the oldest family-run distilleries in the Netherlands and taste their award-winning Ketel One vodka.
10. The Buitenhaven: Explore Schiedam’s industrial past and present by visiting the city’s working harbor.
