    Nice building but difficult to find the entrance. Major exhibition now in November 2020 about Aad de Haas. Very fascinating and impressive to see so many works (250) in such different styles and techniques from tranquil symbolism to exuberant expressionism. The many linocuts are also very special. The interesting film about his life, narrated by his children, adds a lot.

    Keith Haring in the Glass Palace beautiful building, nice welcome from the ladies, computer system was down, but we were helped quickly and professionally and were able to go downstairs in no time where we were again warmly welcomed with explanations and a brochure it was Wednesday and there was a group of young children present super focused, rarely seen such an obedient, attentive group of young children The exhibition is really amazing, even if you are not a huge KH fan the exhibition provides insight into his younger years the video presentation is really a must you take that time coats and bags in locker with combination lock so no fiddling with change and then have lunch on the top floor Five stars !!!

    A beautiful building with a rich history. We went to the Keith Haring exhibition at Schunck which was great! For me as a KH fan this was heaven! Some work I had never seen before and the Epochal songs installation was mind blowing. A big recommendation to visit the Schunck and fill yourself with culture. So much to see and to do and partake of.

    I won a giveaway on their instagram giving me 2 free tickets for the keith haring expo and a free lunch at bagels and beans. For me it was a 3 hour trip to get there. But when i got there it was more than worth it! The staff was so sweet and asked me if i was haveing a good time. This museum is so unique in its looks and they really did an amazing job in telling keith harings story! Can't wait to visit it more often🥰

    Mooie tentoonstelling van Bertien van Manen, Glückauf, over mijnwerkers in Engeland, Yorkshire, Amerika, Appalachen en Siberië. Prachtige foto's, echt haar stijl, het laten zien van het echte leven, niks geen opsmuk. Heel jammer en vreselijke slechte belichting van de foto's. Je moet vaak moeite doen om ze goed te kunnen bekijken. Deze foto's verdienen beter.

    (Translated by Google) Handy place to study to eat and to be creative. !!! There is wifi !!! And there are sockets! The library is not as empty as the average school library, and;) for people who need to go to the toilet quickly, go to the floor with the children's library. You can just go. Unfortunately not 5 stars. Why? Well that lady who always scares everyone away from the piano that is supposedly "standing there" everyone has also chased that one star away ... 😜 By the way, watch out that you don't bother about all the bikes and scooters that are parked there. There is almost no coming through. (Original) Handige plaats om te studeren te eten en om creatief te zijn. !!! Er is wifi !!! En er zijn stopcontacten! De bibliotheek is niet zo leeg als de gemiddelde schoolbibliotheek, en ;) voor mensen die snel naar de wc moeten, ga naar de verdieping met de kinderbibliotheek. Kun je gewoon even gaan. Helaas geen 5 sterren. Waarom? Nou die mevrouw die altijd iedereen wegjaagt van de piano die “zogenaamd” daar staat voor iedereen heeft ook die ene ster weggejaagd... 😜 Trouwens kijk uit dat je niet op je bek gaat over alle fietsen en scooters die er geparkeerd staan. Er is bijna geen doorkomen aan.

    #12Heerlen beautiful building with sweeping views of the center of Heerlen and the contrasting 13th century romanisque church next door. Perfect space to study/read or just a space to wonder in and enjoy the exhibition. #railthetrails

    The SCHUNCK Glass Palace is a multifunctional building that houses, among other things, the library, the music school, a dance school and the museum. I visited the museum today and enjoyed a colorful and surprising exhibition by David Bade. I admired various paintings and installations and tried to hit a ball on the various emotional golf courses. Recommended.

    (Translated by Google) Shame the brasserie was closed when the opening times indicated they should be open. Then go to Bagels and Beans (nice coffee). Keith Harring's exhibition was good; it's just a pity that the little contrast has not been taken into account in the texts. It is also a pity that the titles and the manufacturability of the photographed works were not mentioned, but the year of shooting was. (Original) Jammer dat de brasserie gesloten was terwijl de openingstijden aangaven dat ze open zouden moeten zijn. Dan maar naar Bagels and Beans (lekkere koffie). Tentoonstelling Keith Harring was goed; alleen jammer dat bij de teksten geen rekening is gehouden met het weinige contrast. Ook jammer dat de titels en het maakbaar van de gefotografeerde werken niet vermeld werden, wel het jaar van fotograferen.

    Wat een prachtige locatie ten midden van Heerlen. Kunst het hele jaar door met als hoogtepunt, Keith Haring in 2022. Dat was geweldig. Het gebouw zelf het Glaspaleis is Bauhaus kunst. Wij wonen in de zomer in Heerlen en bezoeken Schunck en Mijnstreek zeker twee keer per maand. Het eten bij Brasserie is uitstekend! Wij hebben onze eigen bruiloft lunch daar genoten. Erg goede service ook. Aanrader voor iedereen die bon vivant is.

    (Translated by Google) We have seen the exhibition of Piet Oudolf here. Was well worth it. But not only that, the building itself is also a beautiful place. Walk all the way up when you get there, for the restaurant or the view! (Original) Wij hebben hier de tentoonstelling van Piet Oudolf gezien. Was zeker de moeite waard. Maar dat niet alleen, ook het gebouw zelf is een mooie plek. Loop even helemaal naar boven wanneer je er bent, voor t restaurant of het uitzicht!
