Activities

Join us on Saturday 15 March for the public launch of the first comprehensive monograph, Elen Braga, published by MER. Books, celebrating 15 years of work by Belgian-Brazilian artist Elen Braga.

In the 1970s and 80s, Hugo Roelandt created iconic performances such as the occupation of Groendalstraat (1981) in Antwerp and the Aeromatic Art Project (1983) with hovering model helicopters. Along with experts and students, we will investigate how we can reinterpret these performances.

Action in Antwerp! The passionate M HKA art historian and Academy lecturer Piet Van Hecke invites you for a free crash course in the history of happenings and performances in Antwerp.

Discover the magical universe of Panamarenko. The Panamarenko House offers an unmissable journey featuring flying backpacks, walking chickens, and a real helicopter platform on the roof.

On the last Thursday of every month, M HKA is open until 9 p.m. During these evenings, you’re welcome to explore the current exhibitions, along with a special programme of activities.

Family Tour of the Panamarenko House. Join a guided tour and explore the magical place where Panamarenko created floating cars, flying backpacks, pedal-powered helicopters, airships you could live in, submarines, and flying saucers.

During the ‘krokus’ holiday, we offer a range of activities to discover art in a playful way.

With their grabby fingers and curious mouths, toddlers often find it challenging in a museum. That’s why we’ve created a tour tailored just for them.
