Accessibility

We are currently working on making the entire exhibition space at BAK fully accessible. Until the adaptations of the venue are finalized, the ground floor (which makes up over two thirds of the exhibition space) and auditorium are accessible to all, including wheelchair users. There is an accessible toilet on the groundfloor. Texts and subtitles are typically available in both Dutch and English. Moreover, we make video recordings of most of our public programs, which are made available on our Vimeo/YouTube channels after events.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at info@bakonline.org.
