Rietveld Academie alums Masha Volkova, Darwin Winklaar, and Margherita Soldati are among the 15 people who have started the 3Package Deal since 1 September 2022. Fifteen coalitions formed by institutions from across the city of Amsterdam choose participants for this talent development programme. The Gerrit Rietveld Academie is part of one of the visual arts coalitions.

The 3Package Deal offers 15 talents a year of affordable living and working space, an individual development budget (€22,500), coaching and a network of renowned institutions. For this successful programme of the AFK and Bureau Broedplaatsen (BBp), 45 Amsterdam organisations, including the Gerrit Rietveld Academie, open up their network, knowledge and venues to them.
