Exposition space.

Leerdam the Netherlands

Piet Emck uses one of the old almshouses at "The Hofje van Aerden" for exposition of his works.

The “Hofje van Aerden" is a group of almshouses built by Mevrouw van Aerden in 1770 on the site of a castle belonging to the Van Arkel family. Here women who had fallen into poverty were accommodated in large houses set round a beautiful courtyard. In a tall building with a domed roof opposite the main entrance is the Regents' Room, with old furniture and a number of paintings by Frans Hals, Gerard Terborch and Jacob van Ruisdael.)
