Bij De Vieze Gasten wants to contribute through art & culture to a neighbourhood, a city, a society that is open and curious, that shows understanding and respect, that offers opportunities and chances to every individual, that is critical and supportive and that strives for cooperation and social justice for everyone.
A number of principles support this mission:
Artistic co-creation through participation
We believe in the power of the artistic form of work and the creativity of the people who are part of our operations (participants, artists, volunteers, team, audience).
Neighbourhood-oriented
Bij’ De Vieze Gasten lives, works, lives in our neighbourhood, the Bruges Gate. At the same time, we look towards the city, the region and the world. More info about our neighbourhood can be found here.
Superdiversity
The multitude of people and cultures is an enrichment, an artistic opportunity for a community, a neighbourhood, an organization like ours.
Sustainability
We take care of our immediate and wide surroundings and the interpersonal relationships. We’re also members of Greentrack.
