Open air sketching walk through Amsterdam Noord with Liesje van den Berk
Organized in collaboration with Boekhandel van Noord and the Boven ’t Y Shopping Centre, these monthly excursions guide participants through the neighborhood with pencil in hand. Attendees look, listen, feel, and record their observations directly onto paper, exploring themes such as the effects of recent drought. Certain sessions also incorporate writers and storytellers to provide narrative inspiration along the route.What are the effects of the drought of the past few months? In 2026, visual artist Liesje van den Berk is once again organizing monthly drawing walks through Amsterdam North. She does this in collaboration with Boekhandel van Noord and the Boven ’t Y Shopping Centre. Drawing walks and walks with writers alternate. This year, some drawing walks are even combined with a writer or storyteller. During the walk, you set out with a pencil or let yourself be inspired by stories. You look, listen, feel, and capture everything on paper. The walks are for everyone; no experience is necessary.
