In the Werkspoorkwartier you will find De Nijverheid, a cultural haven where artists, designers and other creative makers shape their ideas and can exhibit them.
On the quay are three former prostitution boats that have been given a new life, including as a mini-museum on the history of 't Zandpad and as an exhibition space.
De Nijverheid regularly hosts cultural events. These include concerts by budding bands, but also more experienced artists drop by for a great show. There are exhibitions by 'own' artists, but also by artists from outside and sometimes the shed turns into a cinema. In short, there is always something artistic to experience at De Nijverheid.
With such a nice place comes natural...

Of course, such a nice place also needs a cosy café. The Kunstcafé has a real living room atmosphere. You can enjoy a drink at the bar, made of old Utrecht park benches. And at lunchtime you can enjoy the Nijverlunch, a delicious organic lunch buffet.
