This is STRP
About STRP
Since 2006, STRP has been a platform for art, music and digital culture. STRP offers extensive educational programmes, two annual international exhibitions, as well as workshops, tours and performances. Through these activities, STRP creates space for encounter, experimentation and exchange.
STRP is pronounced as ‘Strijp’ in Dutch [ˈstrɛip ˈɛs]
STRP seeks to initiate an open dialogue with audiences, artists, designers, media makers and thinkers about the relationship between people, experimental technologies, art, society and the future. Each year, STRP also co-produces new works of art in close collaboration with emerging artists, supporting artistic research and new forms of practice.
20 Years of STRP
In 2026, STRP Eindhoven celebrates its twentieth anniversary. Over the past two decades, STRP has continuously evolved and reinvented itself, responding to changes in society, technology and cultural practice. From the very beginning, adaptability and experimentation have been central to the organisation’s identity.
As STRP has grown, so has its understanding of how best to engage new generations of audiences. This ongoing development has led to a renewed programme structure: instead of one large-scale festival, STRP now presents two smaller events, which include an exhibition, a context programme, workshops and performances. This event format allows for greater focus, deeper engagement and closer interaction between artists, participants and audiences, and resonate more strongly with STRP’s current and emerging community.
Education
STRP continues to imagine experimental and hopeful futures through an ambitious, high-quality educational programme that brings together art and digital culture. Education and participation remain at the core of STRP’s practice, with reflection and critical inquiry forming an essential part of every programme. Our activities include co-creation trajectories for emerging makers, talent development programmes, workshops and masterclasses, as well as a diverse music and performance programme.
In 2026, these activities come together during our two yearly events, in spring and autumn, serving as key moments for presentation, dialogue and exchange within a broader year-round programme.
PROTOTYPE
PROTOTYPE is STRP’s new multifunctional permanent space, launching in spring 2026. It serves as a year-round environment for experimentation, development and presentation. Within PROTOTYPE, artists, designers, researchers and audiences come together to explore new ideas, test concepts and reflect on the future, from our present.
Some of STRP’s programmes are developed and presented within PROTOTYPE, making it a central hub for co-creation, education and dialogue. PROTOTYPE embodies STRP’s commitment to long-term engagement, process-driven work and collaboration across disciplines.
