Recap: Time Wednesdays (2017)
Time Wednesday was a frequently recurring evening with short presentations and pitches of work in progress, with a homemade cup of soup from our own kitchen – or barbecue on the roof in the summer.
The evenings were a low-key way for artists and audience to meet and exchange. Because of the returning editions, many artists used the Wednesdays to continuously work on their projects and have regular feedback moments.

The Wednesdays were about showcasing TimeWindow artists, but also inviting interesting makers and thinkers from our greater network. For example, there was a writers’ edition with poets and writers (among others, Joost Oomen, Martin Rombouts, De Poezieboys, Josse Kok, Daniel Vis), and a party edition with DJs and VJs (MAASK, Venderstrooik, OnEgg, Glitterende Eenhoorn).

The biggest edition took place on 22 March 2017, where all artists who were at that point involved in TimeWindow showed a 5 minute snippet of their work in progress – this later evolved into the Testival.
