FIESTA DEL COSMOGOLEM WILL NOT BE ORGANISED ON SUNDAY 5 APRIL 2020 AND WILL BE POSTPONED TO A NEW DATE IN 2020. AN UPDATE ABOUT THE NEW DATE WILL FOLLOW SOON. 

Both young and old are welcome at the international Fiesta del CosmoGolem. The Fiesta is a benefit event supporting children’s rights. It will centre on the CosmoGolem, the large wooden statue with which artist Koen Vanmechelen travels the world to support local communities in their efforts to improve children’s rights.

The day’s programme consists of three main parts. There is a speaker’s corner, which will feature the choreographer and writer Ish Ait Hamou, artist Maria Guzman, Arnoud Raskin (Mobile School and StreetWize) and Hilde Haerden (Campus O³ - Huis van het Kind, Genk).

Especially for children, there will be workshops and reading corners throughout. And finally, there is the return of Nomadland, the neighbourhood’s cosy meeting place, with food, drinks and entertainment

Part of the day’s proceeds will benefit the CosmoGolem project in Chile and the Speel’Wij Nieuwe Kempen. Support and entry tickets will be available in advance – more info will follow shortly.

The performance will feature classical music with an experimental twist, performed by more than 100 musicians; both professionals and local amateurs.
