Treehouse NDSM will open its doors until the late hours of the night to bring you a program full of exciting and artistic adventure!

The Witches Brew Jam Session collective joins forces with the residents of Treehouse NDSM for a special evening centered around transformation and multidisciplinary collaboration. An evening where old roles and expectations give way to new perspectives—and where you go home inspired and changed by the power of shared art.

-20:00-23:30 : Witches Brew Jam session

-20:00: Opening Act Witches Brew  “Mirtilla”
Between baroque and creative improvisation, through plucked and bowed strings, "Mirtilla" is a group difficult to spot and define. Harpsichord and voice interweave fluidly creating madrigalesque echoes and contemporary sonorities. Katerina Orfanoudaki and Sara Guidolin are two young emerging artists in the Northern European scene where they bring their Mediterranean roots. Through their compositions-improvisations, they unite past and present in an experimental and cathartic adventure.

During the opening act of Witches Brew they will create a performative act, raising awareness and questions around the story of the female activist and artist Pippa Bacca.

- From 19:00: Freed from Desire - Performative installation by Vico Persson
You can experience the performance Freed from Desire for yourself.  It is a performance in which rehearsed and improvised elements come together in a special encounter of image, movement and sound.The focus is on tapestry-like works made of discarded candy wrappers and nail polish, evoking abstract traces of sweetness, desire and memory. The installation comes to life when a dancer enters a white square and moves in silence, guided by music through headphones. What is unique about the work is that the sound follows the dance: a live musician reacts to the movements at that moment, which creates a fascinating tension between the two. This silent misalignment is at the emotional core of Freed from Desire, which focuses on themes such as desire, vulnerability and the fragile choreography of human connection.

- Between 19:45 to 20:00: Wearable Art Show - Performance
Come and experience the wearable art of Rika Maja Duevel in a unique Fashion Show Experience – where art and fashion merge, and identity shifts with every step.
Each piece is a celebration of self-expression, intentionality, and the unseen soul, offering a glimpse into life through the lens of the Introverted Artist.This event marks Rika Maja Duevel’s debut wearable art fashion.‍

- From 19:00 Tarot corner and witchcraft stand
‍Anima Lab by Daria Fedorchenko offers two 30-minute charm-making workshops and tarot sessions throughout the night. Blending symbolism, meditation, and live piano performance, her practice explores psychological and spiritual connection in an interdisciplinary way.

-22:30 & 0:00 : Coven of the Senses - Interactive performance
Coven of the Senses is an immersive sensory journey blending food, sound, and magic. During Museum Night at Treehouse, visitors become apprentices in a witches’ academy, progressing through three levels: discovering the Five Powers (a self-guided exploration of the senses), joining The Ritual of Food (a guided transformation through taste), and experiencing The Fire of Sound (a sonic initiation through vibration and rhythm). Each stage grants a symbolic card, forming a small deck that marks the participant’s magical transformation — a playful fusion of art, ritual, and sensory discovery.
