The academy has twenty workshops at its disposal. Some of these are for general use and others are specific to particular departments. The workshops enable students to experiment with different techniques and materials and provide the opportunity to learn to use professional equipment. They form the very heart of the academy.

Beam me up Gerrit!
With this call Gerrit Rietveld Academie and Sandberg Instituut launched an eclectic festival in Paradiso as a wrap up of the Anniversary Show Gerrit turns 50, Willem only 28. Where the Anniversary Show looked back, the party was very much a party of NOW, reflecting the sway of today. All departments participated with music, sound, performances, actions, projections and interventions.
