The Rietveld Pavilion was a student run project space of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie and the Sandberg Instituut before, and Public & Projects is relaunching it as such. The Pavilion provides a platform for students to experiment, to discuss and to learn by making use of the autonomous space. The aim of the Pavilion is to keep the space active and alive, and to bring students together to exchange ideas and to support them in collaborative projects.  

For this academic year we are searching for several student curators; one project per month. For the months January, February and March 2025.
