My name is Thijs. Im the general manager and Creative Director of a foundation that supports young and experimenting artists and performers. We organise an annual festival and we organise events and performances throughout the year. Apart from that Im a freelance filmmaker/animator specialized in creating educational interactive films. I also work at an art cinema in the restaurant and I work at a gay bar once a week. My favourite thing to do is walk my dog, hang out with friends and making music/singing.
