Astrid Mörk, Advisor - Belgium | France | Germany | United Kingdom

Born and raised in Germany, I moved to the Netherlands in 2013 to pursue my studies. I have a background in communications and I hold an MA in Arts, Culture and Society from Erasmus University Rotterdam. In my job as Advisor Belgium|France|Germany|UK, I work to reinforce cultural collaboration between the Netherlands and its neighbouring countries. My aim is to support artists and creatives, who want to work internationally, which I do by providing them with information and a network. What excites me about my work most are projects with social relevance, getting to know many inspiring creative people, and staying up to date on developments in the cultural field.

Before starting at DutchCulture, I worked at Aslan Muziekcentrum, where I coordinated projects for schools in Amsterdam to provide children with music, dance and theatre education. In my free time, you can see me biking with my cello to orchestra rehearsal, or you might find me at Amsterdam's arthouse cinemas watching movies and documentaries.
