The annual festival Festerica in Erica comes with something new. This year, this festival for emerging rock bands from Southeast Drenthe has an exhibition for the first time. It is about the children’s series Alfred Jodocus Kwak, conceived and written by Herman van Veen. The story about the rise and fall of the National Crow Party is told based on a self-made comic strip. This exhibition can be seen on September 10.
During Kunst aan de Vaart, on September 10, in Assen, Ron Glasbeek will present his latest project: artwork and book ‘Moeders & Daughters’. This exhibition can be seen on both Saturday and Sunday in the Aubussonhal gym at Vaart ZZ 83 in Assen. A three meter high temple is being built there with fourteen charcoal drawings on bamboo paper, seven mothers and seven daughters from the North.
From Saturday 10 September, children aged 6 to 12 can take guest lectures from the MuseumJeugdUniversiteit in the Stedelijk Museum Coevorden for the first time. They then learn more about archaeology. Guest teachers take the children on a journey through the past and present for an hour.
At Stedelijk Museum Coevorden, archaeologists and scientists explain how they conduct archaeological research, how you know how old something is and how you research what you have found. Children are also allowed to bring their treasures from the past to the lectures.
The first lecture on Saturday 10 September will be given by Stijn Arnoldussen. He is associate professor of late prehistory at the University of Groningen.
The lecture will be given from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. in the Stedelijk Museum Coevorden. The other lectures are on Saturday 24 September and Saturday 15 October.
The 60th anniversary of the parade is celebrated in Frederiksoord. There are ten parade cars, five junior cars and a fairy car. There is also a children’s parade. The parade will start at 1:30 PM.
