Starting from April 2024, art space Nest will relocate to Laakkwartier in The Hague for a year, while the current building undergoes climate-neutral transformation.
During this one-year period, Nest will operate under the name 'Nest in Laak,' organizing exhibitions and programs in the large industrial warehouse next to Club Laak and its restaurant. Nest will present an experimental and multidisciplinary art program in this new space at Verheeskade 321 starting from 2024.
As Nest moves to the new location in Laak, the current DCR building at De Constant Rebecqueplein will undergo a complete sustainability renovation, commissioned by the municipality. This extensive renovation is expected to take more than a year. Nest is relocating to Laak for this reason. The industrial space where Nest will be situated offers a completely different environment than the current building, providing an excellent opportunity for immersive and interdisciplinary programming.
The Nest
The entrance of Nest in Laak will be transformed into 'The Nest': a meeting place for the neighborhood, artists, and students. Workshops, performances, and discussions will take place here, alongside a shop, a free art bookshelf, and a cup of coffee or tea always ready for everyone.
Nest's educational programs, such as "Verwend Nest" for children, "Jonge Stadsfotograaf" for students from the Johan de Witt Scholengroep, and the collaboration with Art-S-Cool, will continue at the new location. Additionally, local collaborations in the neighborhood will be established.
