Rotterdamse Museumnacht

Last Saturday was the Rotterdam museum night. 44 museums, art galleries, schools, etc., opened up their doors to put on special exhibitions. For 12 euros we could get into all of the exhibitions from 8:00PM until 2:00AM when everything closed down. I can't quite remember how many places i visited, but it must have been 6-8. Many of the places were small exhibitions that took only 15min to visit. An example of one place that I visited, was the Goethe Institute. Usually it is a german language school. But on this day it had an exhibition of German art from Bohemia, which is now the Czech Republic. Until WWII, there was a thriving German population living in the Czech Republic. There were other interesting exhibitions like this one. Still more museums i'd like to visit in Rotterdam though...
