If you would like to know what studying at the KABK is like and you would like to taste the atmosphere, attend the Open Day on Saturday, November 30, 10-4pm (CET). During the Open Day, you can find out which programme suits your talents and interests. You will get to know more about our programmes, their future career perspectives, and what distinguishes KABK. Have a chat with students, alums, and lecturers and ask them your questions about the admission requirements, the intensity of the programme and living in The Hague. Next to that, explore our academy buildings and check out the workshops.
