Koestermoment
Koestermoment · 31 October

'Because in a world that keeps racing on, you sometimes long for a moment of comfort for yourself.' You are warmly welcome to Koestermoment: a personal moment of comfort between memory, creation and music.
With image and music you make space for your loss. Send music that comforts you — pianist Veronique Van Damme plays a personal arrangement for you. Under the guidance of visual therapist Liesbet De Cleyn you create a keepsake booklet. You don't have to be able to do, know or share anything; you may simply be (quiet). We provide snacks and a drink.
