Dekolonisatie
In 2020 is het 75 jaar geleden dat er een einde kwam aan de Tweede Wereldoorlog in voormalig Nederlands-Indië. De daaropvolgende Dekolonisatieoorlog zette de dekolonisatie van Nederlands-Indië in gang. Deze periode heeft grote impact gehad op de levens van vele mensen in Indonesië en Nederland.
Tentoonstelling
De tentoonstelling ‘Van Daar & Van Hier’ laat zien hoe deze gebeurtenissen het leven van jonge Limburgers met Indische en Molukse wortels vandaag nog steeds beïnvloedt.

A beautiful time document, which goes back as far as the interviewees can remember. We record a part of the Dutch history of street organs, through the stories of organ builders and restorers, operators, organ grinders and enthusiasts, including the youngest generation.
