The history of Zandvoort is widely discussed through interactive collection management, organized walks through the old center of the village, and the heritage learning path for primary schools. In addition, the nostalgia of old Zandvoort can be found in the various period rooms of the museum. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In The Life of Memories<\/i>, the interaction between personal stories and museum objects takes center stage. Together they form the collective memory of Zandvoort \u2013 not as a fixed past, but as a living heritage full of meaning. Each object gains value through the stories of residents, visitors and eyewitnesses. <\/p>

Their memories make the past tangible and human. They show how history is shared, passed on, and experienced. In this way, Zandvoort’s heritage is not only preserved in display cases, but also alive in words, feelings, and experiences \u2013 as something that lives, touches, and connects, generation after generation. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In Kunstlogies, Zandvoort welcomes special guests: paintings from the Amsterdam Museum’s collection are ‘staying’ temporarily in the Zandvoorts Museum. Old masters and contemporary art meet here in a new context. <\/p>

This gives the public the opportunity to admire iconic works of art outside the city and experience them in a surprising environment. Especially for this edition, works with Zandvoort as the subject are on display. A highlight is the painting by Cornelis Springer (1817\u20131891), who captured the village church in 1863 with an eye for refined details \u2013 an ode to the 19th-century coastal village. <\/p>

Discover Zandvoort through the eyes of the artists, then and now.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Three artists, three materials \u2013 bronze, ceramics, and stone \u2013 come together in one inspiring exhibition. Sculpture Now! shows how versatile spatial art can be: from monumental sculptures that impress to subdued forms that invite contemplation. Classic materials are given a contemporary meaning, with tradition and innovation going hand in hand. The artists show their craftsmanship and their own vision of the power of three-dimensional art. This reveals how sculpture continues to surprise, challenge, and inspire. Sculpture Now! offers a unique opportunity to experience the actuality of sculpture up close. <\/p>

Noor Brandt, bronze<\/b><\/p>

What you see is what you get, and then just a little more<\/i><\/p>

As a visual artist, I create figurative sculptures in bronze. From clay sketches, I create human and animal figures that capture the essence of the subject. I cast the final form in bronze. My work is sincere and directly recognizable, with an extra layer in which movement, size, shape, and balance together tell the story. <\/p>

Charlotte Groutars, stone<\/b><\/p>

All my sculptures are an expression of emotion and reflection<\/i><\/i><\/span><\/p>

My sculptures are a search for balance and emotion. With bronze, steel, and especially stone, I give my images a powerful and at the same time vulnerable appearance through abstract forms. Clean lines, softness, and depth characterize my work. I investigate tension between opposites and challenge the viewer to reflection and inner experience. <\/p>

Paulien Ploeger, ceramics<\/b><\/p>

In clay, I seek the balance between strength and vulnerability<\/i><\/p>

My ceramic work explores the tension between simplicity and layering. My objects balance between sculptural and functional, with an emphasis on skin, texture, and volume. In the forms, I seek both strength and vulnerability. I want to invite the viewer to a quiet, attentive gaze, in which material and space come together and new meanings slowly unfold. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

From fanfares to football \u2013 discover the power of doing things together.<\/i><\/p>

Associations have been the beating heart of Zandvoort for centuries. Since the 19th century, sports clubs, fanfares, theater groups, and lifeguard brigades have brought residents together and ensured solidarity, commitment, and tradition. In the exhibition 200 Years of Club Love<\/i>, the Zandvoorts Museum shows how these associations connect generations. Photographer Anth(onie) Bakels<\/span> <\/b>captured the rich club life at the beginning of the 20th century; his unique photos form a special view of the past. Together with objects from the collection and contributions from contemporary clubs, a colorful story about connection is created: a shared past that still inspires and gives direction to the future. <\/p>
