In the former Dr. Verwey laboratory on the Coolhaven, TENT presents changing contemporary art, talks, performances and educational programmes.

The exhibition changes the route

Installations, video and performance each call for a different pace. Check the current programme and do not expect work from a previous exhibition.

The building as counterpart

The post-war reconstruction building was a harbour laboratory. Notice the materials, windows and industrial scale, and how artists use that space.

Rotterdam in many voices

The programming focuses strongly on makers and perspectives from the city. For each project, read who curates, who takes part and who sets the framework.

Before you go

Open Thursday–Sunday 12.00–18.00; Monday–Wednesday closed. Closed on 25 and 26 December 2026 and on 1 July 2027. Check the current exhibition, admission and accessibility before you set off.
