About the OT301:
OT301 is a legalised squat. A multimedia cultural centre encompassing a mix of non-commercial, (sub)cultural, artistic and activist projects and people. OT301 is owned and run by a collective, EHBK. All renters are members of the collective and must have an interest in playing an active part. Amongst other things, this means participating in regular meetings and taking responsibility for various tasks.

- VENTILATIEKAMER/CINEMA BAR:
59m2
Suitable for: meeting, workshop, discussion, presentation and other small scale project. 50 square meter space, on the 2nd floor, with view to the Vondelpark. It has a bar, small stage and lots of daylight.
NB: It is NOT suitable for loud noise. As with all spaces within the OT301, we are respectful of our neighbors. Being the space itself not completely insulated from noise/sound made in other parts of the building either, you would need to be able to work with that.

97m2
Suitable for collectives, schools, independent artists with an interest in visual / multi-media / film / cinema / education / lectures / presentations, etc. Mostly daytime activities work best because of noise from evening programmes from other spaces below and above.
