WeMakeThe.City in Nieuw-West

Amsterdam Nieuw-West has a long history. Sloten for example already existed as a city in 1063. Since two decennia, there have been a lot of investments in the district. This results in a growing popularity, wonderful sustainable developments and involved residents. Come to visit the Buurtmakersfestival (Neighbourhood Makers Festival) at The Beach, a hub for Sustainable Design, where local residents, designers and makers come together. In New Metropolis, a dependance of Pakhuis de Zwijger, it’s all about connecting local residents and organisations. Check out their interesting programme and exhibitions.

There is much more to do. Check out the programmes and details below and come visit!
