Buurtkamer Corantijn also speaks English!

You want to participate in the neighbourhood but don’t speak Dutch (yet)? On this page you will find activities that are especially suitable for people who do not speak Dutch. But if you can understand a little Dutch other activities like Stoelyoga or the weekly Walk-In could also be nice for you.
Do you already speak some (or more) Dutch but want to practice and learn more? Join our new weekly Praatcafe! More info is here: www.buurtkamercorantijn.nl/praatcafe.

Neighbourhood drinks (‘Buurtborrel’) – Language no problem!
You like to have a drink with your neighbours but feel insecure about speaking Dutch? During our monthly ‘Buurtborrel’ we will ensure that internationals like you are extra welcome. We will speak English and Dutch and maybe other languages!  The Buurtborrel is usually on a Tuesday or Thursday at the end of the month. See for the date of the next one the title of this page: www.buurtkamercorantijn.nl/buurtborrel-eerstvolgende.

Kids Craft Club
Craftymoms Evan and Ahino are organizing a craft activity for elementary school-aged children from the Postjesbuurt and Baarsjes neighborhoods. The language of instruction will be English and Spanish, but the facilitators also speak basic Dutch, so children who only speak Dutch are also very welcome. See for dates and conditions this page (in Dutch): www.buurtkamercorantijn.nl/knutselen2.

Most activities in the Buurtkamer are (almost) free. Do you have a question? Mail to info@buurtkamercorantijn.nl.

Do you want to organize an activity for this target group yourself? Check possibilities via info@buurtkamercorantijn.nl. For free activities that are open to neighbours, in most cases you can use the Buurtkamer without paying rent.

Organizing a private party or meeting is also possible, but then you will have to pay rent, more info (in Dutch) here.
