"Amaze / a Maze" event
14, 15 and 16 March 2008


'Hotel Volzet' is an art society which organised during the previous
years,
the "Independent Arts"-Festival in Sint-Niklaas (Belgium). Because of
the
success of the festival and stirred by experiences gained during other
projects, we think it's time Sint-Niklaas should have its own cultural
weekend. A cultural top weekend for a broad public with art both in its
common setting like museum and exhibition halls as beyond.

On March 14th ,15th and 16th 2008 'Hotel Volzet' organises a cultural
weekend. The concept of the festival remains the same: the interaction
between the artists and the public. What is different this time is the
fact
that 'Amaze / a Maze' will throw open all kinds of different locations
all
over the city centre. 'Amaze / a Maze' wants to look at the city in a
different way. Exhibitions, performances, visual arts, music, …
anything
that has to do with culture/art will get a chance during 'Amaze / a
Maze'. A
solid programme, in which a wide range of international artists as well
as
local talent will be at the centre, is being elaborated. There is no
such
thing as 'a fixed theme'. A few threads however, like the juvenile book
week, are loosely woven throughout the weekend. Another thread is
'amazement'. By looking at the city in a different way 'Amaze / a Maze'
wants to amaze the visitors.

For the organisation of this cultural weekend, 'Amaze / a Maze' can
already
count on the support of the Cultural Centre, the Municipality of
Sint-Niklaas, Academy of Fine Arts, and many other organisations. In
order
to make this weekend even more rousing, 'Amaze / a Maze' is looking for
organisations and individuals who have suggestions to boost this
cultural
weekend.
