Doctor Kanda in the Kruiden- & Kleurenbuurt

Art project as an example for the neighbourhood

  • Took place in September 2016
Kruiden- en Kleurenbuurt

Several locations spread across the Kruiden- en Kleurenbuurt (neighbourhood of spices and colors) in Tilburg

With this cheerful project, local residents and people working in the area were encouraged to initiate cultural activities and projects for the neighbourhood themselves. Some examples: visual art workshops, theatre workshops, Ƶkruidigeƶ colour competition for all ages, mural making, experiencing Doctor Kandaƶs art laboratory in the shopping mall Paletplein (e.g. drawing, coloring, collecting and sorting out materials, building, embroidery, carrying things), playing one of Doctor Kandaƶs assistants or helping out with the performance at the festive closure of the project.

Coloring competition

Doctor Kanda supplied all the local residents of de Kruiden & Kleurenbuurt with a colouring image as an attachment to the local paper. The person who had coloured in the nicest and had the best idea for a new neighbourhood project received a new bike! The award ceremony was during the festive closing session on saturday the 12th of november in the Paletplein shopping mall.
