Het Hooge Woord
A recurring spoken-word evening in Hoogeveen. I host the evenings and help the volunteer team with invitations, recaps, photography, and the site.
The board at Gebouw Irene gives the evening a recognisable place before people step inside.
I host the evenings and help the team with the room, invitations, recaps, and the platform around it.
01 / Scope
An evening we make together.
We do this with a volunteer team. I host, write, photograph, maintain the site, and help keep the practical work organised.
The room, the team, and the site all support the same evening. Hosting is part of my role, alongside invitations, coordination, and the work before and after each event.
- Hosting and room-setting
- I present the evenings, help set the tone, and make the room welcoming, especially for younger voices taking the stage.
- Working with the volunteer team
- I help the team make agreements, divide the work, and run the evening calmly for everyone who joins us.
- Brand and invitation
- I designed the logo, site, visual language, and tone so people know what Het Hooge Woord is before they enter the room.
- Editorial and platform upkeep
- I write the invitations and recaps, take photographs, built the site, and keep it running.
I host the evening, help the team keep the room moving, and make space for whoever takes the stage.
02 / Systems
The site and everything around it.
The site, visual identity, photography, invitations, and agenda give the evenings a recognisable place outside the room.
I built the Ghost site and keep the practical layer dependable. It does not need to draw attention to itself; it just needs to work.
This De Buren poster is one example of the visual identity I made around the evenings.
03 / Links and articles
Links and articles.
The agenda lists upcoming evenings. My author archive contains the invitations and recaps I wrote, and regional coverage gives an outside view of the first evening.
Together, the agenda, archive, mission page, and regional article give a useful picture of the work since 2023.
