Thursday 10 October is World Homeless Day, a moment to break down stigmas and raise awareness for homeless and marginalised people. Out of Your Roof! and Foundation KOP are organising a festive gathering with an audio tour, performances, and an exhibition created by homeless people from Breda and various artists. Walk through the city centre of Breda and experience the city from the perspective of someone without a 'home'. The day will be concluded with a dinner at the Filmhouse and live music.

With her background in visual theatre, they explore themes that refer to experiences of homelessness, such as alienation, breaking points, seeking protection and discovering creativity.&nbsp;</li><li>Wessel Verrijt worked with Rick and Richard, among others, on a new sculpture over the past few weeks. They collected materials, made drawings and had conversations. The result reflects their encounters, with each drawing on the fabric symbolising a shared conversation or experience of homelessness.</li><li>For this installation, Jet van der Wielen worked with several people who have experienced homelessness. Based on the stories and insights, together they created artworks with a focus on the challenges of living without a home. Visitors are invited to feel for themselves what it is like to be homeless: the endless time, the weather and letting go of belongings. Step inside the installation and experience it for yourself! </li></ul>
