Curious about what goes on behind the scenes of our museum?
During this special Late Donderdag you will explore our temporary exhibition De Parade from a unique perspective. Together with a STAM guide, you will first discover a colorful collection of objects from our collection. Not a classic story, but rather a procession of extraordinary pieces that invite you to look, discover, and be amazed.
Afterwards, doors that are normally closed to the public will open. Together with a collection staff member, you will get an exclusive look behind the scenes of the STAM. You will visit places where visitors normally do not go and discover how a museum collection is managed, researched, and preserved.
What does a museum depot look like? What happens to objects when they are not exhibited? How do collection researchers work? And how do you ensure that thousands of objects are preserved for future generations as well? An unprecedented view of the museum world - you are welcome!
