Lovers of knick-knacks can browse the second-hand and antiques market at Beverhoutplein square and Bij Sint-Jacobs during the weekend. This neighbourhood is where the modern Ghent Festivities [https://visit.gent.be/en/calendar/ghent-festivities] orginated. St James’ Church [https://visit.gent.be/en/see-do/st-james-church] is a stage on the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostella. Here, you will not only find pubs and dance bars, but also art galleries, antiques and interior design shops and shops with accessories and design.
During the weekly arts and crafts market on Groentenmarkt square, you will not find any industrially manufactured mass products. This is where real craftsmen sell the goods that they designed with so much love. You can also enjoy oysters and a glass of champagne. You can visit the crafts market on Saturdays and Sundays. The arts market takes place on Sundays. During the Ghent Festivities in July, the crafts market is replaced by the arts market “Gents openluchtatelier” (Ghent open air studio) at the same location. The pump in the middle of Groentenmarkt [https://visit.gent.be/en/see-do/groentenmarkt]square was installed in the 19th century for the vegetables merchants selling their goods on the square. That's where the square got its name. Nowadays, it’s the place to be for foodies.
Gazon is a summer bar in the beautiful garden of the Kristallijn ice rink in Ghent. Sink down into the pillows with a cocktail, find peace and quiet under the trees or have a drink near the pond. Sun lovers can enjoy the sunshine in one of the beach chairs. Be sure to bring the kids someday. There is a large playground with a bouncy castle. Grown-ups can participate in numerous activities as well: a Kubb game, pétanque and cards. You can enjoy street food, sharing dishes and classic dishes, all prepared in the open kitchen. Vegans and people with allergies will also definitely find something to their liking. Tip: twice a month, Gazon opens its doors on Sunday for a delicious buffet-style brunch accompanied by (live) music. Numerous events, such as bachata initiations, drag shows, workshops, theme nights and Sunday markets with local products, are organised weekly. Consult the calendar here.
At STAMplein square, a separate part of the museum with changing programmes, you can visit the heritage project “The square kilometre”. Here you can learn all about the Dampoort neighbourhood. Historian in residence Tina de Gendt and researcher Thirza Vandenabeele delve deep into the history of the area around the Gent-Dampoort railway station. Contrary to Ledeberg, Rabot and Brugse Poort, which were the central topic of the project “The square kilometre”, the Dampoort area is not what you could call a “neighbourhood”. It is composed of parts of the districts Ham, Macharius, Dendermondsesteenweg and Antwerpsesteenweg. Prefer not to wait in line at the ticket booth? Want to be sure you can discover the STAM when you want to? Then book your tickets online in advance and enjoy your visit to the fullest. Are you driving to Ghent? First check whether you may enter the city centre with your vehicle. Clean vehicles may enter the city centre free of charge, polluting vehicles have to pay. Is your vehicle allowed to enter, but do you not have a Belgian or Dutch number plate? You will ALWAYS have to register!
The festival "Sorry, not sorry" always takes place in a different neighbourhood outside the city centre. This time around it takes place in the Ghent neighbourhood Moscou-Vogelhoek-Flora. At the heart of the festival, you can find the industrial site of the former weaving and spinning mill De Porre. Street art in the broadest sense of the word is at the centre of the festival. As always, the focus is on creative ‘underground’ and ‘out of the box’ art. The festival puts young artists and organisations in the spotlight and breaks down the walls between mainstream artists and street artists. The programme offers a rich variety of visual arts, workshops, info sessions and educational initiatives.
This exhibition examines the similarities and differences between the purchasing policy of Jan Hoet, the founder of S.M.A.K. (Municipal Museum of Contemporary Art), and that of the art collecting couple Roger and Hilda Matthys-Colle. Dr. Roger Matthys stood at the cradle of the Association for the Museum of Contemporary Art (V.M.H.K.), which had the ambition to open its own museum and also purchased art. As president of the association, Matthys had a lot of influence on the purchasing policy of the V.M.H.K. His private collection included quite some works that were exhibited in or purchased by the museum. Both collections are closely intertwined and complement each other. The Matthys-Colle Collection spans fifty years. In an early stage Roger Matthys purchased works of art for his private collection as well as for the collection of the V.M.H.K. In his purchases he did not focus on one specific movement, but rather created a collection that is representative of all art movements from the second half of the twentieth century.  In 2020, the S.M.A.K. received 39 works on long-term loan, which now constitute the basis for this exhibition. Both collections include or at one time included work by every single artist represented in the exhibition.  The archive exhibition on the upper floor delves deeper into the Matthys-Colle Collection and the figure of Jan Hoet, while in the room of the association of the Friends of S.M.A.K. you will discover a selection of works by artists represented in the Matthys-Colle Collection and exhibited by the V.M.H.K.
In visual arts, collaboration is often secondary to the romanticised idea of individual artistic genius. Challenging the myth of the solitary artist, this exhibition explores the unique dynamic of collective creativity and looks at how it influences artistic production. In addition to works from the S.M.A.K. collection, created between 1959 and 2021 by art collectives, artist duos or one–off collaborations, this exhibition also displays works deliberately designed to facilitate other works of art.  Includes works by: Philip Metten, Art & Language, Denicolai & Provoost, Bernd & Hilla Becher, Jos De Gruyter & Harald Thys, Flexboj & L.A., Narcisse Tordoir & David Neirings, General Idea, Gilbert & George, HAP, David Hammons & Bruna Esposito, Franz West, Heimo Zobernig, Danh Vo, Apparatus 22, Ex-artists' collective (Anikó Loránt, Kaszás Tamás), Audrey Cottin, Alexis Gautier, Anna & Bernard Blume, Brosi & Bonier, Engelbert Van Anderlecht & Jean Dypréau, SUPERFLEX, Marina Abràmovic & Jan Hoet, Guillaume Bijl, Allora & Calzadilla, Jacques Charlier, Korakrit Arunanondchai, Mekhitar Garabedian, Ingrid Mwangi and Robert Hutter.
