We have been operating an attraction in Amsterdam since the end of January 2023. In the building located in the heart of De Pijp, opposite the Marie Heinekenplein. We have built an ‘art experience.’ It is an innovative way to explore the world of painting. It features replicas of 50 iconic paintings gathered in one place, along with interactive experiences. The paintings are displayed in chronological order from the Renaissance to ‘De Stijl,’ allowing visitors to take a ‘time travel’ journey through the evolution of painting. The layout of the attraction encourages visitors to take plenty of photos. With this setup, it becomes an appealing destination for art enthusiasts, tourists  and schools interested in exploring the world of painting and experiencing an interactive cultural adventure.

Business model:

• Selling admission tickets: (Verkoop toegangsbewijzen)
• Selling food and beverages: (Verkoop horeca)
• Selling items in the shop: (Verkoop in de winkel)
• Selling replicas: (Verkoop replica’s)
• Renting space for events (dinners, birthdays, company outings, etc.), film/advertisement shootings: (Verhuur van ruimte voor evenementen, (diners, verjaardagen, bedrijfsuitjes, enz.), film- /reclame-opnames

The revenue is increasing exponentially, while the fixed costs remain the same, and the variable costs are rising marginally. This allows for the possibility of achieving substantial profits once the breakeven point is reached. Beside that, there is also a good possibility for franchising.
