𝐒.𝐎.𝐒-𝐍𝐃𝐎𝐱𝐄𝐂𝐃𝟐 welcomes you to Propanal. Born from a typo (from the word “proposal”), instead of correcting it, we kept it. 🌀 Now it names a familiar artistic condition: the moment when you’ve done your best, sent the idea out into the world, and no longer know what will happen next. Propanal is a festival of attempts, risks, and honest offerings: works that arrive with intention but without guarantees. 🌪️ It will be presented across two programs at Veem House for Performance (@veem.house ) located at Van Diemenstraat 408-410, 1013 CR in Amsterdam. 🌝𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐌 𝟏 - 10th & 11th of April at 19h🌚 🪾NANA (@lng.nana ) with Aaron Lokamna (@adonisus_ ), Marlon Verspaandonk (@marlonverspaandonk ), Andrea Cantoro (@andreacvnt ) & Rayane Chado (@rayanechado ) 🪾Yadhira De León Matos (@_matosyadhira ) with David Richards (@david.rchrds ), Fleur Philipsen (@fl.eur.l ) & Luana Olivera (@luana.oliveiradw ) 🪾Yadin Akira Bernauer (@yadosch2 ) with Envel Serazin Oliver (@envel.serazinolivier ) 🪾Famil Zaman (@fammmil ) with Bäo Banchard-Delegatie (@bao_n0 ) & Jonas Verschuren (@jonas.verschuren ) 🌚𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐌 𝟐 - 17th & 18th of April at 19h🌝 🪾Jozef Jie Sheng Chua (@closebyparadise ) with Sampo Cameron Stevenson (@sampo.stevenson ), Miki Smith (@mikismithhh ) & Ksenia Davydova (@kseniadavydov_a ) 🪾Nayo Sauter (@oxitropis ) with Nis Hagen (@folks.farben ), Déborah Sounouvou (@deborah_sounouvou ), Adjeng Ginzburg (adjeng.gzb) & Troy Florent (@troyflorent ) 🪾Alla Kravchenko (@allashliakhova ) with Ael Boudehent Le Bideau (@ael_blb ) 🪾Saqar Saharkhiz (@8saghar9 ) with Heda Cavadore Vieceli (@hedacavadore ), Jasmine Urie (@jas_u_15 ), Guusje Kummer (@guusjekummer ) & Lovis Westkant (@lovis_westman ) 🪾Marley Meijer (@aangereden.wasbeer ) with Eline Bruynel (@elinebruynel ) & Annamaria Cancellara (@annacancellaraa ) 🎟️Ticket info: Find it via our link in bio Accessibility: the building is wheelchair accessible. #SNDOPROGRAM

𝟴𝟬𝟵 𝘅 𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗦𝗘 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗨𝗡𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗦𝗘𝗦𝗦𝗜𝗢𝗡 For this edition of the 𝟴𝟬𝟵 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗦𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻, we’re working closely with the 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 through a co-curation with 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲 𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗼𝘃𝗮, curator of @house.dance.amsterdam and founder of @solid.house__ This session starts from the idea that the 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙘𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙤𝙛 𝙗𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙜 begins with the (un)finished self. Entering the cypher, this process becomes relational: shaped through listening, response, and shared presence with others and the wider community. Through moments of conversation and exchange, the session approaches the cypher as both container and teacher within house culture, where the self is reflected, challenged, and affirmed—returning to the circle again and again transformed through collective practice. This shared journey will begin with a 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 with selector @bevangosling , before moving into a 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗹 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸 facilitated by @ktawjoeram , together with @itapuusepp , @wanitoe , @leandro_vanenburg & @patty.ova . From there, our beloved resident DJ @pandapolli will open the floor, inviting everyone into an 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 to dance together, allowing these reflections to continue through movement, music, and exchange. Stay tuned for more information on the panel talk and a proper introduction to the lineup! Because of the studio’s space limitations, 𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱! Reserve yours through the link in BIO, the entrance is free.

𝟴𝟬𝟵 𝘅 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗨𝗡𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗦𝗘𝗦𝗦𝗜𝗢𝗡 From collaboration to co-curation, 809 Collaborative Session evolves into 𝟴𝟬𝟵 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗦𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻! A co-created space where cultural practice meets academic context, positioning street and club styles practitioners as carriers of history, heritage, wisdom, and community values. For this edition, we’re working closely with the 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 through a co-curation with 𝗭𝗶𝗻𝗼 𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘁 and 𝗟𝗼𝗺𝗿𝗼𝗵 ‘𝗕𝗴𝗶𝗿𝗹 𝗠𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗲’ 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝘀, while also building a bridge toward their upcoming Mini & Maxi event in February. We’ll explore breaking’s journey in the Netherlands and beyond through an intergenerational 𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗹 𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗸 on the ‘𝘾𝙮𝙥𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙖𝙨 𝙖 𝙇𝙞𝙫𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝘼𝙧𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙫𝙚’. Moderated by @seanwilliam035 , together with panelists @roytheruggeds @papa_break1970 @bgirlmolecule @zino_schat we will look at how the cyphers reveal, challenge, and shape the ongoing evolution of breaking culture. Afterwards, DJs @monicastattoos and @snoucky_dee will open the floor with their records, inviting us all into an 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 to finish the day dancing and exchanging together. Soup and drinks will be available to buy on the spot! Because of the studio’s space limitations, 𝘀𝗽𝗼𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗱! Reserve yours through the link in BIO, the entrance is free.
