In June of 2021 after hearing a great deal about the Museum of Humanity and the work of photographer Ruben Timman in transforming a site where the military had once produced bombs and grenades into a place that currently honors humanity and the common good in all. We knew that on our next trip to the Netherlands a visit to the museum was a must.
Since 2019, thousands of people have experienced this permanent, multi-cultural and breathtaking tribute in Amsterdam as well as engaging with various pop-up exhibit around the world. In addition more than 5000 students have taken part in the School of Humanity, an educational part of the museum.These are just a handful of the images that I made during my afternoon visit. Enjoy! I encourage you to visit, support & learn from the heart and passion behind this project . . . most of all get out of your personal silo and get to know those living around you.Most often you will see yourself . . .
