GALERIE FRITS

We opened as an illustrative and graphic gallery in April 2025. 2026 is the year where we turn the space in a more dynamic place, where creation and creations come together. Located in the heart of Antwerp, close to the city hall and the Groenplaats, we are very easy accessible on foot, by bike, public transport, and we have several carparks close by.

Address : Korte Nieuwstraat 5, 2000 Antwerpen

  • how it works

    We create a workshop price based on instructor’s fee, rental and administration costs. We propose a standard price and a standard instructor’s fee. Does a workshop require more time, very expensive materials or a smaller group of participants than 8? We can discuss alternative prices.

  • the numbers

    • Workshop time : ± 2,5 hours
    • Set up : 30 min / clean up : 30 min
    • Standard price : € 60,00 (VAT incl.)
    • capacity : 6 - 12 people
  • more numbers

    • Instructor’s fee : € 175,00
    • based on 6-8 participants
    • more than 8 participants : € 10,00 extra for instructor, per person
    • less than 6 participants : the workshops gets rescheduled or canceled.
  • These policies apply to all workshops, rentals, and co-produced events held in our space. By booking the space, the organizer/instructor agrees to the following terms.
