Landhuis Bloemhof - Workshops

We are excited about our NEW WORKSHOP PLANNING 2011 - 2012.

This year we have 9 new workshops amongst the yearly classics. 

We would also like to take the opportunity to introduce a couple of new teachers:





Carlos Blaaker is a well known painter, originally from Surinam.  He currently works in Curacao but lived for many years in Rotterdam. He will be guiding the workshop: Basic Oil Painting Techniques.

Jolien van Kesteren is a young art teacher who just finished her studies in The Netherlands. She has only been living on the island for a few months but already scored a great workshop: Creative Mind Mapping.


Margo Nelissen is a jewelry designer from The Netherlands. She recently moved to Curacao and would love to teach again. Since 1999 she has been teaching and giving workshops in jewelry design at various institutions. She will be guiding the workshop: Jewelry Design with Silver Clay.


And last but not least we have Bryan Fraites. He is a Tai Chi and Qi Gong instructor. He will be teaching these two traditional Chinese exercises.


If you have any questions or would like to sign up for one or more workshops please contact Rainy Prins at 737-5775 or info@bloemhof.an.
We hope to be hearing from you soon!

Kind regards,
