Did you hear about the two nine-year-olds who became art critics for a day? At S.A.K.B. Kunstlokaal, they judged an exhibition celebrating the center’s 50th anniversary. S.A.K.B. Kunstlokaal, short for Stichting Amstelveense Kunstbelangen, has been a haven for art enthusiasts since 1975. It’s a place where professional artists teach, amateurs create, and everyone appreciates art. Located on Ouderkerkerlaan 15 in Amstelveen, S.A.K.B. Kunstlokaal offers a wide range of courses, workshops, and open studios. You can explore various art forms here, from drawing and painting to sculpting and creative writing. The two young judges, Ties and Maxwell, had the tough job of selecting the best pieces from the “(G)oud en nieuw” exhibition. They focused on how well the artworks reflected the theme of “Old and New.” The winning piece, by Cor Bakker, depicted a robot in front of an antique mirror. Maxwell explained their choice, saying the mirror represented the old, while the robot symbolized the new. S.A.K.B. Kunstlokaal is more than just a place to learn. It’s a vibrant community that also hosts exhibitions and participates in local events. They even organize the annual art market in the Oude Dorp. If you’re ever in Amstelveen, stop by S.A.K.B. Kunstlokaal. You might discover your own artistic talent or simply enjoy the creative atmosphere. Who knows, you might even stumble upon the next masterpiece chosen by a nine-year-old art critic.
