Van Abbehuis organizes an ongoing series of artist interviews with the various users of Van Abbehuis hosted by DVR Collective: Radu Mihai Tănasă, Demi van Kuijk, and Vinith Bhandari. DVR collective is an online platform for interviews broadcast on Radio Worm Rotterdam. The audio works will be distributed in part by Eindhoven station Rararadio, which emphasizes historical avant-garde and countercultures in its programming. Interview formats are approached as a new form of art distribution; during part of the publicly accessible interviews, the audience also plays an active role in a public interview session.

Abby is a group of young artists who work within our organization on the implementation and expansion of activities. This sounding board group is a learning environment for age 14 to 21. The program uses a mix of seminars, workshops, and excursions to explore how institutions use the languages and roles that produce meaning. In collaboration with local and international professionals, they critically redefine various concepts based on their expectations and issues. Over the past editions, it has addressed questions such as empowerment and social urgency and developed ways to make young voices heard. Abby is pro-activation, anti-doomscrolling, and focuses on developing new ways to draw attention to online and offline exhibitions.
