You and the Golden Age — 2013

Exhibition Concept

During the major renovation and rebuilding of the Rijksmuseum, a secret society was discovered behind the walls, conducting research into the history of the Golden Age: What was behind it?

In the educational program You & the Golden Age, visiting children help the society put the pieces of history back together by stepping into the shoes of someone from the Golden Age. They meet Rembrandt, flee in Hugo de Groot’s book chest, and experience the cold in the Behouden Huys on Nova Zembla. This way, the museum objects gain meaning, making it an unforgettable history lesson.

Award

On March 27, 2014, the educational program You & the Golden Age won the Best Practice Award, as well as the NOT innovation awards, both public and jury prizes.
