America votes. The world watches. We reflect.
This November, America heads to the polls. Just days after the election, join the John Adams, BKB Het Campagnebureau and the Netherlands Atlantic Association, for an evening exploring what the results mean—not only for America, but for Europe and the world.
We’re still putting the finishing touches on the program, but expect a festival-style night at Pakhuis de Zwijger, with two rooms running simultaneously. Your ticket is your passport: choose your own route and move between sessions throughout the evening.
Take a speed course in the US Constitution, hear Dutch and American experts go head-to-head in panel discussions, be inspired by live classical music, or catch an interview with Mark Leibovich, journalist at The Atlantic and longtime Washington correspondent. And, of course, there will be drinks, snacks, and plenty of time to exchange thoughts between sessions. Pakhuis de Zwijger is keeping its doors open for us for an extra-long night. Read more
