What's your daughter's favorite artwork? What's your son's favorite color? And what do you think when you look at a huge blue painting?
The 'How well do you know your family tour' is a fun way for you and your family to discover the museum, and the art—and learn even more about each other. All in the company of a tour guide.
Note: registration for the family tour is required!
DROP-IN WORKSHOP: KIEFER’S SPACE
April 29, May 1, 2 ,3 & 5 2025
For the whole family from 7 years old
Is there a space where you feel most comfortable? Your bedroom, for example. But it can also be another place; the gym, the caravan or a circus tent. We explore this feeling of freedom and security. With the help of our museum teachers, you will get to work depicting that space yourself and you will contribute to a large work of art.
Just like Kiefer, we are going big this May holiday. Drop in and contribute to a large, collaborative work of art.

Letter Lab
Everyday, free of charge, for the whole family
My father’s typewriter always fascinated me. I’d hit a button and the letter ‘a’ appears. But that ‘a’ might as well be a bird or another picture,’ says designer Karel Martens.
A letter is a code, a key to unlock information. How would your name look if conveyed in art rather than spelled out in letters? What design would you choose to communicate a message? Use the code wheel on the wall to uncover hidden meanings, or design your own space with letters, colors and patterns.
The Letter Lab draws on the work of Karel Martens, and was designed by Koehorst in 't Veld. Unbound, a retrospective of Karel Martens’ work over the past 50 years, is on at the Stedelijk Museum from July to October, 2025.
Visit the museum with your family!
