This time, we’ve partnered with visionary artist Kevin Rooi to redesign our hard shell luggage, resulting in five unique Resist’r Cases that showcase his vibrant artwork and our commitment to durability. Discover the exclusive cases on https://lnkd.in/ewZib8ww For every Resist’r Case sold, Eastpak will donate a portion of the sales to Omek, a membership-based community dedicated to connecting and empowering bicultural professionals of African descent.

    OSCAM en VPRO nodigen fotografen, schilders en creatieve makers uit om deel te nemen aan een speciale expo ter ere van de Afro-Europese community.

Wil jij deelnemen aan deze tentoonstelling 28 november in Paradiso in Amsterdam? Stuur voor 24 oktober je portfolio en conceptvoorstel naar opencall@oscam.nl t.a.v. Leia Amerding. Deze expositie is onderdeel van The Afro-European Sessions, een samenwerking tussen VPRO, OSCAM en Omek. En komt voort uit de nieuwe VPRO-documentaire De Afro-Europeaan, geregisseerd door Soraya Pol.

Vanaf vandaag woensdag 16 oktober is de documentaire om 22:15 uur op VPRO, NPO 2 en npostart.nl te zien.
