About this event

  • Event lasts 3 hours 45 minutes

Join us for an exclusive Vlerick alumni event organised by the Fierce & Proud Club: a guided Queer art tour at the Royal Arts Museum of Antwerp, followed by a delightful drink at the Gallery of Newchild, featuring an exposition curated by Ella Mc Veigh. Experience the blend of art and networking in a setting that celebrates creativity and connection.


The Vlerick Alumni Fierce & Proud Club brings together LGBTQIA+ Vlerick alumni & allies. We invite you to join us for our yearly cultural event.

In the queer tour, you discover, together with a guide and a pair of pink glasses, the museum collection. How do we look at old art from a queer perspective? Which artists played with gender norms? Which paintings show us what was considered modest or immoral? How does the queer community appropriate certain representations of the past?

On this tour, be inspired to look at art in a contrarian way and be yourself! Because why be normal when you can be fabulous?

Afterwards, we are invited by Vlerick Alumni Sarah Vanwelden, founder of Newchild Gallery, to visit the exposition of Ella Mc Veigh, where we can share our experiences surrounded by some modern art during a joyful networking drink.

An excellent opportunity to build a strong, fierce & proud network of business professionals.
