Long story short: last year we ran a crowdfunding campaign to renovate our new space, and we're having a lot of fun producing the rewards for our supporters. The tattoos are ready!! They're incredible. Maybe we'll keep them as permanent merch ;) ... (Designs by Julian Mostert)

In one month we are finally opening the doors of our new home! Expect a two-day celebration in pure Sickhouse style: games, films, performances, interactive panels, exhibition and more. Check more details about the program on our website and save your free tickets! www.sickhouse.nl/events/reope...

We tweaked our website with the help of The Rodina! We want to make it dynamic, easy, and exciting to use. A place where you learn more about the projects and research Sickhouse is working on. We would love for you to try it out, click here and there, and tell us what you think :) www.sickhouse.nl

We've been quiet, but that's because we're working hard preparing the opening of our new space❣️ That means slowing down in January and February and only having a couple of events, but it will be worth it. SAVE THE DATE: February 27 and 28, Sickhouse comes back to life!
