Over de Drempel supports people and projects that use art and culture to discuss loneliness. Because anyone who has ever felt lonely knows how difficult it is to put into words.

An ambitious art exhibition where international artists work on new pieces around the theme of “soil”. To inspire you and offer new perspectives. Because what does the Frisian soil (Fryske grûn) mean for someone who does not live in Fryslân?
