OPEN SPACES 800 took a look ahead at the 800th anniversary of the city of Bocholt, which will be celebrated in 2022. Fifteen national and international artists will deal with the term SPACE on two levels: SPACE CITY (BOCHOLT) and SPACE in all its facets and meanings.
Part of OPEN SPACES 800 are two participatory art projects: MY SPACES 008 for schoolchildren and HEIMAT-SKULPTUR, which citizens in Bocholt and the surrounding/border area are invited to help create.
