Arnhem

Welcome to A Beautiful Mess Arnhem. In March 2023, we opened a Community Café in Arnhem. It is a meeting place for residents of the emergency shelter (Nieuwe Kade) and local residents: a living room with various activities.

Community café

Two afternoons a week, people can visit the café right across the road from the emergency accomodation, where residents and employees of ~~Refugee~~ Company work together. Everyone is welcome. It is a nice and safe place, where we work together with various organisations to make it a lively place. At this moment, we do not have the facilities to provide you with our delicious food, but you are more than welcome to visit us for a drink.

Joint Activities

Residents from the neighborhood and those in emergency shelters are welcome to join us for a cup of coffee on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons at the community café, from 1 PM to 5 PM. In addition, they can participate in the following workshops for free:
