Support the Rijksakademie

Give space to research, experimentation and growth.

Would Mondriaan have become Mondriaan without his stay at the Rijksakademie? And what about Berlage, Breitner or Appel? Or more recently Monira Al Qadiri, Otobong Nkanga or Fiona Tan?

For over 150 years, the Rijksakademie has been a place where artists dare to experiment, ask questions and reinvent themselves. Where they immerse themselves for two years in an environment that challenges, nourishes and strengthens them. By supporting the Rijksakademie, you help to preserve this space – and contribute to the art of tomorrow.

Together, we ensure that artists can develop, that new voices are being heard, and that art can continue to have impact. And you receive something special in return: exclusive access to our workshops, meetings with artists, and a glimpse behind the scenes of an international art community.
