Future Past Glory, an ode to Jakoba Mulder, sparkles in Beatrixpark. This artwork by Heringa/van Kalsbeek honours her pioneering work as a designer of the park and important urban planner of Amsterdam.
Women have always played a vital role in Amsterdam’s history, both past and present. This ties in beautifully with the action About Women of Amsterdam – an Ode, arranged by the Amsterdam Museum. They are calling on everyone to write an ode to women who made a difference in Amsterdam. These stories will be shared on their platform, and the best contributions will become part of an exhibition, a book and a podcast.
Write your ode too via the Amsterdam Museum website and help raise the visibility of these extraordinary women. ✍️
