OT301

Since 1998, EHBK has united a diverse, international community that runs the alternative, not-for-profit platform OT301 as a collective, in which housing, work and public functions are combined to contribute to the arts, politics and subculture.
EHBK shares knowledge and organizational duties in a democratic manner and encourages all members and visitors to take part in our experiment.

In the OT301 we have living spaces, ateliers for artists, artists in residency, a concert room, bar, gallery, vegan kitchen, cinema, yoga classes, rehearsal spaces, radio station and various workshops. We are open almost every day.

We have a couple of public spaces organizing various events:

Studios:
Stichting Studio301 is a non-profit foundation based in the OT301 in Amsterdam. Its goal is to programme a variety of music, dance, performances, theatre, markets and workshops.
The main focus are the night programs from Wednesday till Saturday. Weeknights are usually programmed with live bands, weekend nights are more dedicated to electronic music. With both types of programming we aim to have a good balance of young talent and (inter)national bands and DJs. Besides working on an exciting, experimental, fresh, edgy and high quality programming we think it is important to keep prices low and make sure the vibe is good.

4bid Gallery:
The space is multi-faceted, at times activities, studies, processes are visibleto an audience of visitors in an unofficial manner, at others a platform that shows work produced by the gallery and created extemporarily. We organize a variety of recurrent activities open to the public: exhibitions - workshops - performances - debates.

Ventilator Cinema + bar
Amsterdam Alternative will work with different programming teams for film/docu screenings, music related events, reading groups, a talk show and various discussion programs. As we are non profit and want to keep entry prices as low as possible we work with volunteers only. If you are interested in joing our team of programmers, want to help at the bar or with technical or hospitality shifts then please let us know.
Besides our own programming the cinema and/or bar space are also for rent for small scale events such as meetings, brainstorms, workshops, screenings etc. 
Please contact us for more info, prices and availability.
The Ventilator bar and cinema are on the 2nd floor of the OT301. Unfortunately there is no elevator in the OT301 which means that the accessibility is not perfect for those with physical problems. We are very sorry for this inconvenience.

Café Gilde
Situated right at the front door of the building, a fully vegan (so plant-based food, non-animal leather upholstery, etc) café open for lunch, borrel, and events, cooperatively run and built on the principle of relying on our own hard work, competence, and creativity instead of exploitation and needless expenditure. Everyone is welcome, be it as a visitor or as a new member; just don't be exclusionary.
