Foundation B.a.d is a collective of artists who have been helping to shape Rotterdam’s cultural landscape since 1987. In 1991 we occupied a vacant school building in Charlois, transforming it into a thriving cultural sanctuary. From painters and photographers to conceptual artists and creators of public art, our community thrives on creative diversity.

These talented musicians skillfully wield their pedal boards to submerge you in a captivating sea of melancholic melodies.
