where craft,

Eight years after artecetera was founded by Sofie Lachaert and Luc Dhanis, 2025 marks a new milestone.
A new team takes over: Katrien Laporte, An Michiels, Tim Vanheers, Siegrid Demyttenaere and Elien Haentjens, each with extensive experience in the world of design, art, architecture, and crafts.
They bring an inspiring programme with fascinating encounters and visits, giving artecetera’s friends the opportunity to experience art and design up close.
