In the Diva Studio, influencer and Rotterdam diva Lotte van Eijk challenges you to walk the catwalk like a true diva. Experience what it feels like to be on stage, then get hands-on with the interactive installation by Nou & Herkauw. Here, you can design your own digital diva with the Diva Designer.

StoryLines Studio

Daily
Aimée de Jongh is an artist from Rotterdam who has become world-famous with her beautifully illustrated books. The stories she tells in her drawings can take on all kinds of shapes, including comics, animations, and graphic novels. Graphic novels are comics in which the story unfolds through drawings and text balloons. In the StoryLines Studio, you create your own mini graphic novel in the exhibition space (and first, of course, get inspired by the StoryLines exhibition...).
