WHat is kunstof?Kunstof is the best, creative student organization in Nijmegen. Every month, we organize an easily accessible and artistic workshop on the campus of Radboud University, given by various enthusiastic artists and students. Kunstof workshops are affordable and suitable for students and starters of any level: so whether you are a true artist or an occasional doodler, everyone is welcome!

the origin of kunstofKunstof was founded in 2014 and became an official foundation in 2018. The students Sanna Dinh, Lydia Vlagsma, Fenna Sanders and Elyse Maas missed a place on campus to, aside from studying, be creative. These four heroes put their heads together. Add a pinch of enthusiasm, entrepreneurship and a lot of determination and voilà! Kunstof was a fact. Since then, Kunstof has brought together many inspiring and enthusiastic creative artists and students.

THE TEAM
Jasja
Hey, my name is Jasja and I'm a second year psychology student. I'm the Chair of Kunstof and mostly organise appointments and contact with other organisations, but I also make the posters for workshops and Artnights!
I am in love with art, everything from musea to children's drawings to game design. Talking with others who are passionate about art as well, is especially one of my favorite things to do. I myself so lots of artsy stuff, drawing and painting as well as some sculpture and woodworking. I also love giving others critique and helping new artists getting started. I am very excited about the coming year and our upcoming activities, I hope to see and talk to a bunch of you! |
Stephanie
Hey, I'm Stephanie and I'm a fourth-year Arts and Culture Studies student :) I am the Treasurer at Kunstof, which means that I am responsible for the income and expenditure of the foundation in addition to the general board tasks.
I have been doing crafts and drawing since I was a child and I really love to tinker. I mainly do a lot of crocheting and scrapbooking, but I also enjoy trying new things. I became involved with Kunstof because there are monthly workshops that bring you into contact with different art techniques that you might not easily try yourself. In addition, it is also very nice getting to know new people during the workshops and Art Nights! I hope to meet you there too! |
joyce
Hi everyone! I am Joyce, a third year AI student. This year I am the secretary of Kunstof! I will answer all your urgent (and not as urgent) emails, so do send a message :)
I actually have been doing creative things since I remember, in all different kinds of forms: drawing, journalling, a loom band business (lol). Nowadays I'm mainly capturing my favourite memories in my scrapbook! Being creative is one of my favourite ways to spend time, yet I still sometimes forget how much I love it. Hopefully I can get the best out of being creative at Kunstof, and do so with you during one of our activities! |
