NEW PERSPECTIVES
19 May - 7 June 2017

The exhibition New Perspectives presents the results from the educational project of the same name, which ran from January until May 2017.

New Perspectives is a project initiated by Foam that helps newcomers and people granted temporary residence participate in society through a range of workshops, tours, masterclasses and exchanges linked to photography. The objective is to use photography to stimulate creative encounters and language development amongst Amsterdam residents. The exhibition presents some of the best work created as a result of these encounters.

Special thanks goes out to Refugee Company, Basisschool de Kinderboom en Vrijeschool Kairos, VluchtelingenWerk Nederland, Sagènn, opleiding Culturele en Maatschappelijke Vorming (HvA) and Wereldhuis for their involvement.

The New Perspectives programme is made possible by het Kansfonds. The exhibition New Perspectives is made possible by VluchtelingenWerk Nederland.

Foam is supported by BankGiro Loterij, De Brauw Blackstone Westbroek, Delta Lloyd, Gemeente Amsterdam, Olympus and the VandenEnde Foundation.
