Welcome at ndsm

NDSM in Amsterdam-Noord is a creative hotspot spanning no less than 10 hectares. What was once an industrial shipyard has become a vibrant area filled with makers, art, culture, hospitality, and innovative entrepreneurship. With impressive views, art in the public space, and plenty of freedom to explore, NDSM is the place where ideas grow and stories come together.

In het kader van Wish Me Well organiseert De Feministische Handwerk Partij een workshop.

Rondom het kunstwerk van Lara Schnitger, gemaakt van met de hand versierde zandzakken die feministische waarden beschermen, onderzoeken we hoe textiel, repareren en zorgen al eeuwenlang verbonden zijn met de rol van vrouwen in de samenleving.

NDSM-werf - Kraan 7

Under Pressure is the winning project of the NDSM Open Call 2023 by Catarina Garcia and Jim Du Pan. The winning proposal consists of a colossal steel sphere that appears to rise above the shipyard. The base of the work is formed by Crane 7, a derelict crane that in its heyday transported pieces of steel from the warehouse to the slipways, where ships were assembled and restored. The sphere is illuminated from within and functions as a beacon of light for the surrounding area, also visible from the water. The frame of the sphere is wrapped in plants that change with the seasons.
