Veem House
Veem House for Performance is an internationally oriented house for development rooted in Amsterdam. Their resources are used to give artists the space to explore, experiment, fail and grow. They support the dance, mime and performance makers of tomorrow whose work focuses on movement in relation to the body as well as social and political movement. By working collaboratively with partners, they aim to nurture and amplify multiple voices in the artistic field.
Unfortunately, due to the complete cut of national fundings, Veem House had to close its doors in the beginning of 2025. Their colleagues of Bau are taking over the building and also the partnership within Life Long Burning.
Veem House was involved in the following Life Long Burning activities:
Noha Ramadan in Berlin
Noha Ramadan spends her first Creative Crossroads Residency at Uferstudios Berlin in August 2025 Noha Ramadan.
