About
De Betovering is The Hague's international art festival for children, filling the autumn holidays with theater, dance and hands-on workshops. Shows from the Netherlands and abroad play at theaters across the city, while museums, community centers and cultural institutions run workshops. At the festival center, kids can join GUMLAB: trade a bit of information about yourself for a shiny gum ball, then chew along toward a shared artwork.
