Keti Koti Kids workshop

Keti Koti is the day on which we commemorate the abolition of slavery and celebrate the freedom of Suriname and the Netherlands Antilles, among others.

On this special day, OSCAM is organizing a creative workshop: Design Your Freedom Flag. Children will work with fabric and tie-dye to create a flag that tells their unique story. Inspired by their identity, family, and culture, they will design a personal freedom flag that reflects what freedom means to them. Through color, patterns, and creativity, they will express who they are. Each flag becomes a powerful symbol of self-expression, belonging, diversity, and the freedom to be yourself.

We’ll wrap up the day with a festive goodie bag full of snacks for all the children.

The workshop will take place outdoors on July 1 at OSCAM, Bijlmerplein 97, and is for children aged 6–14 years old.
