SUMMARY:Art alert! Enjoy the work of this Renaissance artist at a unique festival
DESCRIPTION:Want to experience a fresh take on a precious piece of history? Check out this Dieric Bouts exhibition at Leuven’s “New Horizons” festival!  \nMysterious\, evasive\, and rich — those are just some of the adjectives used to describe Bouts’ hauntingly beautiful\, timeless works of art. 🖼 \nA Renaissance artist\, Bouts was born in Haarlem and used the urban renewal experienced in Leuven\, Belgium\, as inspiration for his varied and dynamic masterpieces. 🎨 \nThough the Flemish artist was an esteemed commander of the paintbrush back in the 1400s\, over five centuries later\, his captivating artwork still holds true. 🖌 \nAs part of the exhibition\, titled “Dieric Bouts. Creator of Images”\, visitors can reflect on his work with a “totally new perspective”\, and we’re ready for it to give us goosebumps! ✨ \nDieric Bouts reimagined\nBack in the day\, Bouts was exploring “new horizons” himself — and the producers of the “New Horizons” city festival certainly are too. \nRunning from October through January\, the exhibition offers extensive\, reimagined versions of the Dutch painter’s body of work. \nHow are they doing this exactly? There will be sports photographers\, filmmakers and game developers to spice up Bouts’ art with a “radical confrontation with today’s visual culture”. Yup\, sign us up! 🙋‍♀️ \n\nWhen\, where\, how?\nHere’s what to know and where to go if you want to experience this mind-bending exhibition: \n📍Where? The magnificent Museum Leuven (M Leuven) in Belgium \n🗓When? From October 20\, 2023\, to January 14\, 2024 \n🤔How? It’s simple\, book your tickets online in advance here! \nAre you going to book your tickets ASAP? Join the club!

SUMMARY:Sinterklaas
DESCRIPTION:Sinterklaas is one holiday where the Dutch go all out on big celebrations and exciting traditions.  \nWhile the youngsters sit their shoes under the chimney to receive chocoladeletters (chocolate letters) and other sweet treats\, the adults can celebrate the holiday by giving out tailored gifts or writing poems. You’ll find the popular kruidnoten and pepernoten to satisfy your sweet tooth in all the different supermarkets (even Kruidvat). In most towns\, you’ll be able to enjoy the Sinterklaas parade with the man himself roaming the streets together with his helper Zwarte Piet — a figure that has been the site of some controversy in recent years. \nREAD MORE | Sinterklaas for expats: all the Dutch you need to make it through the holiday season

SUMMARY:Christmas Eve
DESCRIPTION:Since Sinterklaas has already dropped off his presents on December 5\, the Kerstavond is not much of a reason to celebrate. Pretty much a regular day\, the Dutchies may spend it having dinner with family and friends\, or simply enjoying the general merriment over the holidays. Don’t be surprised if you’re expected to show up at work just like on any other day.  \nREAD MORE | What happens during Christmas in the Netherlands? A guide to the winter holidays

SUMMARY:Christmas Day (Eerste Kerstdag)

SUMMARY:Second Day of Christmas (Tweede Kerstdag)
