A breeding ground for creativity

Meet visual artists, musicians, writers, poets, architects, theatre and film makers and actors and art-loving members with a passion for art and culture. The HKK offers a stimulating environment with exhibition spaces and stages for experimentation and innovation.

Cross pollination and innovation

The HKK has four departments: Visual Arts & Design and Architecture, Literature, Theatre & Film and Music.

Through this diversity the HKK promotes collaboration between different art forms. Crossover events, which cross disciplinary boundaries and open up new creative opportunities, are regularly organized.

‘De Bock’ Society and the community table

Our welcoming Society ‘De Bock’ is the perfect place to catch up with other members over drinks each month. A highlight is the monthly community table, where members can enjoy a delicious meal and engaging conversations with artists and art lovers.
