On friday night 13 September the Night of the Dictatorship takes place.

Potje Propaganda – Selling the unsellable!
A Dutch dictator wants a campaign to limit press freedom. How do you sell the unsellable? Four creative teams come up with a propaganda campaign. At the end of the evening, the campaigns will be presented on the basis of pitches and posters. Of course, the campaigns will be critically commented by an expert jury. Will you accept this challenge?
An evening full of tough questions, an excellent jury with politicians, advertisers and historians – and of course matching prices. Its not necessary to reservate a seat as you can walk in and out during the match.
