Van Kinderen Museum: a closed initiative

Het Van Kinderen Museum in The Hague has closed permanently. The former address on the Waldeck Pyrmontkade therefore offers no current museum visit. Old information about workshops or irregular opening may create false expectations.

Children as makers

The initiative centred on children’s work and made room for their ideas. The description of the former offer lists studios and an inventors’ workshop, in which making played an important role.

Making ideas visible

The concept put children’s creations at its centre. That subject makes the institution recognisable, but the activities described are not workshops you can book or visit independently there now.

Recognising old references

A listing in a guide to days out can remain after a venue has closed. So note the difference between a description of the former concept and a concrete, current activity elsewhere.

Before you go

The museum is closed. Do not rely on old studio hours, age indications or appointment options; they do not describe any available programme at the former address.
