The Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam is the place where everyone can discover and experience modern and contemporary art and design. Our collection, exhibitions, books, research, and educational programs, in collaboration with a broad network of partners, offer unique and compelling insights into today’s world, reflecting on broader social issues. The Stedelijk will always be an open and public museum where current social topics will be defined, commented upon, and experienced through art.

The Gerrit Rietveld Academie is a university of applied sciences for Fine Arts and Design. We offer a bachelor degree programme and four master degree programs.
The Gerrit Rietveld Academie aims to support talented young people in such a way that they can operate independently in the field of visual arts or design. We want to enable them to sustain their work on their own and become sources of artistic inspiration in their area of specialization.
The Rietveld Academie wants to optimally develop the capacities and creativity of the individual. We respect the individual and his freedom to develop a personal approach and develop his own future. We value research, experimentation and authorship, and attach great importance to maintaining an open attitude towards the environment while supporting involvement with others and society. We do this on the basis of our own individual vision of what art education should be.
The Rietveld Academie is an international academy. With 45% of our students coming from outside the Netherlands and representing more than 60 countries, we reflect the character of the world of arts & culture today. We regard the bringing together of different cultures in our academy as a strength, challenging students and lecturers to take different perspectives.
