Visiting Tjald Sparnaay's exhibition turned out to be a disappointing experience. Let me first say that the artist's work testifies to skilled craftsmanship. The work itself did not give me warm and enthusiastic feelings. The high-flown lyrics accompanying the work began to irritate immensely after a short time

Museum Jan has an excellent. Modern glass art permanent exhibition (mostly European). Also their exhibition of hyperrealistic paintings by Tjalf Spaarnaay is gorgeous. Interesting detail is that one of the founders, Jan Verschoor, actually lives in the museum and his living room is visible.

What an experience to visit this museum as a group from many different cultures (25 people) and gain inspiration for our fashion project (Lisa Konno exhibition) and, as icing on the cake, to meet Jan Verschoor. A very nice atmosphere in this museum created by the hosts! Wendy van Es, Westland Cultuurweb (Culture Without Borders project)

Since the Herman Brood exhibition some years ago, we haven't been back, but we'll be back more often! The Sparnaay food exhibition is spectacular, but also the standard exhibits (like the glass dept) are great!

What a great treasure of Amstelveen. We visited the Sparnaay exhibition and loved it. The regular collection of glass art is also worthwhile.

Not too large, but still spacious with nice collection of glass works as well as changing contemporary exhibitions. Nicely located in the old town center.

The Van Loon mansion is one of the grandiose houses lining the Kaizeragracht overlooking the canal.
The museum is housed over 3 floors with an attic,carriage house and garden to boot. The kitchen is particularly interesting.
The building is crammed full of portraits and ornate wallpaper too much to take in and while these are interesting in themselves less is better than more.

Hurry up: splendid rare work of the famous Dutch artist Klaas Gubbels with a tiny outreach of his work in surrounding streets.
This exposition will end on the 25the og August 2019 so: hurry up.
But there come other carefully selected artists there and an exceptional permanent exposition of outstanding glass, as well as mobiles are permanent there. The Van Der Togt is located in Amstelveen (close to Amsterdam) and not far from the Cobra-museum.
Entrée is free with the Dutch Museumcard.

"Almost unreal;Willem van Veldhuizen" is the current expo at this museum;the museum is larger than it looks from outside and is was not very busy.Museum Jan van der Togt offers modern art and the museum is situated next to the historic Amstelveen village church in an area that still feels like a village.The collection is small ,featuring glass objects and modern sculptures and paintings.I enjoyed my brief visit,MJK free,otherwise expensive entry fee for the few object and paintings you get to see.

Third visit for me here and again it was a pleasant visit in this modern and pretty museum building.
The special for Lita Cabellut's work (till end of january 2019) is well done. There was enough space in the museum rooms to watch her huge works from the right distance.
Besides these always beautiful and interesting temporary exhibitions there are always a lot of items of their vast an unique glass objects collection on display. Also the museum shop offers a lot of interesting modern glass objects for sale.
Friendly staff, free lockers. There is a free parking lot nearby.
