The interdisciplinary art event F.A.R.T. is back in the center of Rotterdam for a second edition, October the 30th. The event has grown into a true minifestival with a full program in a hotel, a nearby hostel and a party in two warehouses. After the success of the first edition in Hotel Central, late October last year, it's now time for the follow up.

Art, fashion and performances in hotel rooms

F.A.R.T. is an event that presents upcoming and more well known talents in art, design, fashion, lifestyle, performance and music. This time Boutique Hotel Quartier du Port (formerly Hotel Philedelphia) and the nextdoor Hostel ROOM at the Scheepvaartkwartier in Rotterdam will be the perfect setting.
The atmosphere and the temporality of staying in a hotel room is the starting point. Visitors will expe- rience a various mix of mini-exhibitions, art installations, (music) performances, fashion and film,- and video work. The entire hotel with all hotel rooms and rooms in the nextdoor hostel are the playground for 30 artists. The program in the hotel and the hostel starts at 8 pm and ends at midnight. Then the party will take over.
