How does a photographer choose the right moment? What happens before a photograph is taken? And what stories lie behind the people you see?
On 3 October, you’ll have a special opportunity to explore ‘A Closer Look’ alongside photographer Carla Kogelman and curator Dorine Maat.
During two guided tours, they’ll take you on a journey through the black-and-white photographs and the personal stories behind them. Carla will talk about her encounters with the people she sometimes followed for years. Dorine will help you see the images and the exhibition in a new light.
The guided tours start at 1.00 pm and 2.00 pm
The guided tour is free with a valid museum ticket.
Celebrate the city with us! On Saturday 17 October, you can visit Museum Amersfoort for free. Explore the exhibitions, join a speed tour, create your own art, listen to music and play traditional Amersfoort games. A festive day full of stories and new encounters for young and old alike.

Is playing just for children? Not at all! Playing may not have a specific goal, but it helps you to stay creative and discover unexpected ideas. In the exhibition, you saw how Carla Kogelman photographs people of all ages while they play. Now it's your turn in the Maak Mee Atelier. Choose a play table and explore on your own or together. Build a crazy tower, create something with clay, or try one of the other activities. Take photos of each other while playing, print your favourite with the small photo printer, and add it to the mini gallery in the Maak Mee Atelier.
