The graduating students of the Critical Studies programme at Sandberg Instituut would like to warmly invite you to Things of Each Possible Relation Hashing Against One Another, our End of Year Programme taking place on Thursday, June 11 and Friday, June 12 at de Thomas. You're warmly invited to come along and join us there!

Spread out over two days, the End of Year Programme brings together the research, writing, discourse and experimentation that the Critical Studies students at Sandberg Instituut have engaged in over the last year. Including contributions by both first- and second-year students, the programme features readings, performances, screenings and a publication launch, as well as exhibited spatial works.

Doors to the exhibition open at 13:00, and presentations begin at 15:00. You’ll find a more detailed schedule below. Drinks will be served at the bar all evening for a small fee (pin only), and snacks will be provided at dinnertime, free of charge. 

Hope to see you there!
