Art Rap Foundation is proud to announce its official reopening and the grand opening of ZEER TROPISCH Art House, a new cultural hub in the heart of San Nicolas. The celebration will take place on Saturday, September 27th, starting at 7:00 PM, directly in front of the world famous Charlie’s Bar at B. van der Veen Zeppenfeldstraat 67.
The evening will feature a collective art exhibition with works by Glenda Heyliger, Alida Martinez, Dimanche-Jolie, Lenny Lea, and Nelson Gonzalez. This inaugural event marks a new chapter for Art Rap Foundation, reaffirming its role as a catalyst for art, community, and cultural innovation in Aruba.
Founded with the vision of positioning Aruba as a Caribbean reference point for artistic innovation and social cohesion, Art Rap Foundation’s mission is to integrate art as a tool for transformation socially, educationally, and culturally, while creating opportunities for dialogue, exchange, and collective growth.
ZEER TROPISCH Art House will serve as the foundation’s headquarters and epicenter for programs that connect art, education, and community life, hosting exhibitions, residencies, and projects that activate San Nicolas as a vibrant cultural destination.
This milestone would not be possible without the generous support of our partners, Playa Liquor Company and TEC INC., whose contributions help bring our vision to life.
We warmly invite the public to join us for this free event, an evening of art, community, and celebration.
