Tuesday March 26 at 8pm: Catch that spring feeling at the most charming theatre of Amsterdam, with music, photo’s & stories about how spring is in the air, though not the only thing… We welcome you at CLUB FANTASMA at Torpedo Theatre.

Theme: a new spring. With photo’s from phenomenal skies from Saskia Boelsums, a presentation by Denise de Grave about how she makes people aware of clean air, and the story behind the creation of Eau d’Amsterdam Vondelpark: be there if you are interested in the effect of park bathing & your sense of smell; and as always with music from Maartje Jaquet and her Arizona Highways.

This year we will bring the story of Amsterdam’s signature tree to all elementary schools in our city with the project ‘Schoolpleiniepen‘

All elementary schools will receive a young elm tree in the week of Nationale Boomfeestdag. Also they get the chance to obtain 1 or more big elm trees, which will be planted by the governmental tree planters.

 

 

Eau d'Amsterdam bottle illustrationNow there is a unique city perfume based on the natural scent of the wood & leaves of the elm tree! Eau d’Amsterdam, Scent of the Elm Trees was launched in 2014 to support the cultural activities from Springsnow. The perfume was made by Tijdmakers in cooperation with Annindriya & IFF. VOGUE selected it as One of the Seven Best Scents with a Destination. The perfume is for sale at different locations and online, see: www.eaudamsterdam.com. 

Read about Springsnow
The American writer John Green was so impressed with the ‘falling of flowers from the sky’ during his Writer in Residence stay in Amsterdam that he wrote about it in bestseller The Fault in our Stars. It’s an AWESOME book to read, especially at springtime at the canals!
