Freezing Favela

Freezing Favela is a temporary city at Mediamatic Fabriek, VOC kade 10, Oostenburg Amsterdam. The space is big, unheated, and the roof leaks. Designers, cooks, and other makers have claimed part of this space as their own. In the Favela you can make tosti's from scratch, furniture from cardboard, artwork from trash and cook with ingredients from the aquaponics farm. Favela-citizens give workshops and organize events and meals. We're open at every Wednesday and Sunday from 1pm to 6pm at the very least. Entrance is free with a Club Mediamatic membership (€5.- for 4 weeks). For some workshops and events there is an additional fee.
