Op de Schans is a spoken word and open mic night in the heart of Amsterdam. Normally, Op de Schans takes place in the living room of designer and entrepreneur Bonne Reijn, where writers and artists read unpublished texts, raps, or experiments. Anyone can also participate in the open mic by registering on the night itself. Spoken word, poetry, prose, or essay—all writing is welcome!

For this special edition of Op de Schans, we'll be exploring the neighborhood, inviting writers to write new work inspired by three locations selected by the Warmoes Biennale.
