Annually, Stroom organises the Invest Conference for artists who received an Invest grant in the preceding year (in 2011 these were the artists Melissa Cruz Garcia, Angeline Dekker, Gordan Savicic, Lilian Kreutzberger, Lars Kynde, Amir Tirandaz and Selena Savic). Dutch and foreign curators visit the studios of artists in The Hague and visit art institutions, artist's initiatives and galleries in the city. At the start of the conference there is a public evening during which the curators are questioned by a moderator about their role and position as a curator. Participating curators (more names will follow): Marwa Arsanios (98 Weeks Project Space, Beirut, Lebanon); Liz Burns (Fire Station, Dublin, Ireland); Adnan Yildiz (Künstlerhaus Stuttgart, Germany); Xander Karskens (De Hallen museum, Haarlem, NL); Larissa Harris (Queens Museum, New York); Simon Delobel (Verbeke Foundation, Kemzeke, Belgium)

Meeting on alternative funding opportunities for artists (extended info in Dutch only)
Stroom wants to organize the coming months different meetings in which artists can strengthen and deepen each other's professional practice and exchange information on various topics.
