During After Summer School 2024, there will be a week of public classes spread throughout the city. Together, the more than 20 different guest lecturers emphasise that Rotterdam is a hub of all kinds of underexposed and alternative knowledge. From different perspectives, you will learn more about development of the city.

Thursday 3 October, OMI will take you to Schouwburgplein, a place where many opinions, visions and plans about public space converge.During this excursion, the past, present and possible future of the square will be explored together with architect and researcher Claudia Kromrei (University of Bremen) and architect Mike van Rheenen (G.A.F. architects).

This program is part of the exhibition ‘Rotterdam Culture City: Post 65 Part II’. The visit of Claudia Kromrei is made possible by the International Visitors Programme of the Nieuwe Instituut with support from the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
