THE VOLENDAM MUSEUM WILL BE CLOSED FROM 6 JANUARY TO 8 MARCH
Exhibition
''Maurice Siskin, Taster of the South Sea and Singer of sunlight''
From 8 March, we have a special exhibition of the painter Maurice Sijs (1880-1972). This Belgian painter had lost his heart to Volendam. He created the most beautiful works of art of the beautiful botters and the harbour. He lived by the harbour for a long time where he had a special view of the sea and everything that lived there.
Maurice Sijs is the painter of the sea; the sea, in the glow of happy sunlight, the sea seen on a grey, sad day, the sea with sloops and ships, the sea in its deepest solitude.
ABOUT THE VOLENDAMS MUSEUM
The Volendam Museum offers a fascinating look at the rich history and culture of Volendam from the time between 1850 and 1950.
In addition to the permanent eye-catchers such as the Cigar Band Museum and traditional costumes, we also offer changing exhibitions, which makes it fun to visit us.
Exhibition
''Volendam: musical journey through the century!''
The exhibition ‘Volendam, a musical journey through the century’ presents an overview of Volendam's rich musical history never before shown on this scale.
From the successes of The Cats and BZN via Jan Smit, Nick and Simon and the 3Js to the ‘other sound of Volendam’ with bands like Alasca and Mell and Vintage Future. Through never-before-seen photos, pieces of honour and special relics, 100 years of musical success from Volendam will be celebrated.
Due to its success, the Volendam Museum will also be dedicated to music in 2025. Music and Volendam are inseparable and the music of Volendam artists has brought worldwide success. Take a musical journey through the past and present in the Volendam Museum and visit this unique exhibition!
