De Nieuwe Liefde

De Nieuwe Liefde is a cultural centre for language and literature in the broadest sense of the word. This stage is for established and new writers and makers, all with indispensable stories.

Visit the quiet conservatory café, chat with a neighbour or read a book from the De Nieuwe Liefde collection.
