Creative Garden
Spend a Sunday making things in one of Amsterdam’s most beautiful gardens.
For one day, the Rijksmuseum gardens turn into an open-air creative studio. Try your hand at botanical drawing, cyanotype printing, embroidery, soap sculpture or architecture sketching, then wander off for a garden tour, live jazz or a little roaming poetry. No need to be particularly artistic. Pick whatever catches your eye, make something slightly questionable, then compare results over a drink afterwards.
