What you see doesn’t always tell the whole story. Just as a calm sea can hide a strong current, a young person's life may look fine on the surface while a lot is going on beneath. In Breda, we are proud of organisations that actively support young people, such as De Cultuurkantine, BredaMantelzorg, and PakhuisB. Approximately 1 in 4 young people care for a family member. The Kunstkameraden project provides young carers with space to step away from their caregiving duties and express their creativity.In the Explore Breda Store, there is an exhibition showcasing artworks created by young carers through BredaMantelzorg. The project is about more than just creating art - it’s also about connecting people and creating stories that go beyond the artwork itself. Here, you can also discover the stories of young carers.Additionally, there is a platform for the KinderTrendrede, an annual version of a throne speech and future vision presented by primary school children of the city to the local government. In the exhibition, you will find the future visions from the six editions of the KinderTrendrede.&nbsp;The GalleryLaneKunstkameraden is also exhibiting at <a href="puuid#9c9e3a1b-ecae-4eff-a18f-4d7a004c30d8">The GalleryLane</a>.

Together with partners from the city, we tell the Story of Breda: we are a borderless, green, and hospitable city. The content of this platform changes regularly, with cultural partners to educational institutions getting the opportunity. From 6 November, you can explore the exhibition 'Hoor mij, zie mij'.
