SOOP is a meeting space for and by the elderly in the Plantage and Weesperbuurt in Amsterdam.
Meeting place
The SOOP is a meeting centre for the elderly run entirely by volunteers.
Many activities take place, and there is a wide range of courses. The monthly neighbourhood drinks are popular, and the movie afternoons and vernissages are well attended.
You can walk in daily for a coffee and a chat or read the newspaper at the reading table.
