De Lopende Band.

During the graduation show, you are welcome to visit us to view work by the graduating artists, enjoy a drink, and grab a bite to eat. It’s also a place where you can explore and purchase artworks directly from the artists. A space to hang out, meet people, and experience the show in a different way.

Who are we?

De Lopende Band is a collaboration between Kunstkantine & Metro C.

Kunstkantine is a platform and nomadic gallery based in Groningen that supports emerging artists and makes contemporary art more accessible to a wider audience.

Metro C is a studio space run by (former) Minerva students, where making and experiencing art come together. An open space where visitors are welcome to step inside and engage with the work up close.

Together, we create a place where the graduation show comes together: art, encounter, bar, and shop in one.

Find your next artwork at De Lopende Band. Fresh from the graduation show, straight onto the conveyor belt. Discover artworks by a new generation of artists, have a drink, and take something home before anyone else does.

And while you're in the city, don't forget to feast your eyes on the graduation show itself. There is plenty more to discover beyond De Lopende Band.
