Since the first edition of Amsterdam Light Festival in 2012 we actively try to enthuse a new generation about (light) art. Through several projects, we focus on primary, middle and higher education.
In collaboration with Juf op Straat around 1000 students from primary schools in Amsterdam learn about creativity, technology and light as a form of art, during various workshops. They contribute to a light artwork in the route, under the guidance of an artist. This year we have a special project relating to bridges and quays in Amsterdam.

We work together with (technical) highschools for the project called 'Light Lab Technasium'. Students learn about the process of making a light artwork. As part of classes in school, they make protoypes which are exhibited during the festival. Take a look at de succesfull projects of Edition 9 and Edition 10.
Amsterdam Light Festival offers a stage to young and upcoming talent. Selected students of the Breitner Academy create a light artwork, under the guidance of curators and technical staff of the festival. Via the buttons below you can view the artworks of previous editions!
