4. Stadsridders
The Stadsridders foundation’s goal is to utilize the creative opportunities the city has
to offer by means of multidisciplinary collaboration. We want to create quality and
innovation within the urban environment. The Stadsridders’ members have different
backgrounds, what ties them together is their interest in the spatial, creative and social
dynamics of the city.
Creative Commons Workshop
Introduction
Within the Creative Commons project Stadsridders organises a workshop on a case
location in The Hague. It is a practical approach to make the potential of currently un-
used buildings (or not used to its full potential). With people interested in the subject
new ideas for The Hague are developed collaboratively.
5. De Lagere School
The on-site workshop will be at ‘De Lagere School’ in The Hague. This is a former
elementary school that no longer has this function. At the moment the building
is occupied by artists on a temporary basis. The school building is situated in the
Schilderswijk area, a so-called Vogelaarwijk (a deprived neighbourhood). The school
is adjecent to the local community centre (De Wissel).
