- Get your hands dirty!
Tuesdays and Thursdays | 1.30-4.00 p.m.
In addition to our HANDWORK exhibition, the museum also has a special HANDWORKSHOP where you can have a go at making something under the supervision of our HANDWORKERS. They will explain and demonstrate the craft techniques employed in Zeeland’s regional costume and carpentry. Then it’s time for you to get your hands dirty!
