SPACE FOR CHANGE

Space for change

House of Confetti makes space for makers and visitors to be part of a new creative and sustainable community in the city center of Venlo. We are building a physical playground that facilitates an open meeting place for creatives beyond the digital world. Our mission is to (re)connect with each other, ourselves and our environment through art, fashion, sustainability, craftsmanship and cultural development. This playground will be the place where more voices make themselves heard and claim their space.

The ultimate goal is to connect makers and visitors from multicolored communities to experiment, make, do, share and be who they are, together. Experimentation and failure, and the process rather than the result, are paramount.

Anyone who wants to participate without excluding others is welcome. We are a playground for people from all ages, gender, ethnicity, class, different abilities, orientation and other partial identities. From self-taught to academic, everyone is welcome.

Through workshops, exhibitions, an open makerspace, a sustainable shop and an ongoing exiting program we create an inspirational knowledge and meeting center where ideas can be applied straight away.
