Welcome at the OpenHaard blog. OpenHaard is a monthly Dutch inspiration-evening based in Club 8, Amsterdam. We have a dead easy goal: to search, dig and share inspiration. We like to inspire you and in return ourselfs. While our evenings – and other parts of this website – are all in Dutch, we like to share the stories with the world. This is why our blog is both Dutch and English.
Here you will find a random collection of our own inspiration, writings, free-thoughts and other mayhem. Please comment and/or discuss all our posts and submit your own idea’s on the subject. Don’t hold back, play with our thoughts, but please stay on topic. Got some spare inspiration yourself? Send us the data and we will see if it’s suitable for OH means. If so, we’ll post it along with your name. Hopefully this page will be filled with valuable shared knowledge. Enjoy.
