Fishermen On Tour
27 november 2021 – 25 februari 2022
An (free) outdoor exhibition, along four places, where you can meet 12 Fishermen from Scheveningen, captured by photographer and video documentary maker Roderik Rotting.
Go on foot or by bike, scan the QR-code on the portraits and listen to the personal stories told by the Fishermen themselves. They reveal what it’s really like to be a fisherman at Scheveningen, about the challenges and pleasures, joy and sorrow, high seas and the mainland: salt and sweet.
Discover the hidden gems, while you’re walking. In the brochure, the participating local entrepreneurs offer you special ‘Fishermen On Tour’ deals, highlighted in the map. These brochures are available free of charge at Muzee Scheveningen, Haagsche Stadsfiets, Viswinkel de Lange, Appeltje Eitje, De Snoeshaen, De Maatschappij, Tante Knier, Studio Scheveningen, Simonis on the boulevard and De Pier. View the map below!
We invite you to walk the entire route, but you are also more than welcome to visit the exhibition called Fishermen Salt & Sweet at Muzee Scheveningen. On display until February 28th, 2022.
