Agenda

March

Magazine launch Zandbank: 14-03-25

Join us for the launch of Issue #01—the first publication of Platform Zandbank!

Zandbank is a space for slow reflection and sustainable criticism, resisting the rush of fast commentary. Issue #01 is a collection of texts by artists, curators, and writers—woven together through shared interests such as speculative fiction, ecology, technology, and ethics.

This magazine grew through collective engagement, shaped by group feedback sessions rather than a top-down editorial process. Now, we invite you to take part in the conversation!

The evening will feature readings, performances, and space for discussion—come grab a copy, experience the contributions live, and toast to thoughtful criticism!
