The Monday Club

Want to step out of your work bubble for a bit? Come join The Monday Club!

The go-to weekly workspace and meeting place for cultural professionals in Arnhem and Nijmegen. Work on your project plan, budget, or grant application; meet other creators and professionals; or brainstorm your ideas. With good coffee, great people, and a little extra motivation, you’ll often get a lot further.

Are you stuck on something? Between 1:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m., there’s always someone from Cultuur Academy available to help you figure things out—whether it’s fundraising, marketing, or business-related questions. Useful resources, such as *Het Grote Fondsenboek*, are also available for you.

For whom.

For anyone working in the cultural sector. Whether you’re an independent artist, a freelancer, or an employee of a cultural organization—you’re welcome here. Especially if you’re looking for a pleasant workspace, new connections, or that extra push to finally finish that one project.

How does it work?

It's very simple: just drop by whenever it's convenient for you! Once, every now and then, or every week. You decide what you want to work on and how long you'll stay. No registration required.

The Monday Club Specials

January 18: "Accounting Monday" with Hans Reijs

Hans Reijs of ENTR Finance might not be the kind of person you’d immediately recognize as an accountant if you passed him on the street, but behind that cheerful demeanor lies an extremely meticulous professional with a deep passion for the cultural sector.

He’ll help you with your VAT return and income tax and advise you on programs and tax breaks that could benefit you as an artist or creative professional, such as the starter deduction or the small business scheme. Not sure where to start with your bookkeeping, registering with the Chamber of Commerce, or which expenses you can and can’t claim? Ask Hans your questions during The Monday Club.

Not convinced yet? Tax advice usually costs about €125 per hour, but during Accounting Monday, you only pay the admission fee for De Maandag Club: €2.50.

Hans will be available from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. for half-hour one-on-one meetings. Registration is required. After you register, you will be assigned a specific time slot within this time frame.
