For the third time, the Association of Kumpulans in the Netherlands, together with the Moluks Historisch Museum, invites you to take part in an afternoon of inspiration. This time we want to search for connection together with you. What connects the different generations, the Moluccan community and the society around us? Is it the stories, sung and told, over meals that remind us of grandmother or that we have given a twist? What role can kumpulans play in the search for connection? Cook, sing, tell and discover whether these are the ingredients that lead to more encounter, more 'lain lihat lain'.
Date: Saturday 14 September Doors open: 13.30 Programme: 14.00 – 17.30 Makan makan: 17.30 – 18.30 Venue: Sophiahof, Moluks Historisch Museum, Sophialaan 10, The Hague Registration: until 9 September by email to thenu.alex@gmail.com or jeannyvreeswijkmanusiwa@gmail.com
