GLUE amsterdam connected by design
September 16-19.2021
A four-day design-route from and for the Amsterdam designers, architects, brands, showrooms, galleries, academies, and other colleagues.
GLUE amsterdam connected by design connects all locations and provides a substantive and attractive program for colleagues and the public.
Covid-19
In this time of corona and in our current society of social distancing that we will be living in for the foreseeable future, GLUE, with its design route that fans out across the city, is the ideal event. Nevertheless, we ask the exhibitors to follow the guidelines that the City of Amsterdam sets out shortly before the event, to maintain distance, to wash your hands frequently, to be inspired, and to have fun.

On the eve of the three-day festival, prior to the opening cocktails scattered all throughout the city, GLUE is organising a substantive debate at, and in collaboration with, Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.
What can designers add to Amsterdam? Why are creatives important for the city? We discuss what role design can play in a vibrant and unconventional city like ours.
