Celebrating the Europa Nostra Award for Odeuropa with playful scent exploration workshops!
On 13 October 2025 the international Odeuropa-project, received the prestigious Europa Nostra / European Heritage Award: a wonderful recognition for all those who have been advancing the study and promotion of smell heritage and sensory mining.To celebrate this memorable achievement, we invite you to a playful afternoon of scent exploration on 13 November at the Trippenhuis.
Smelling, playing, learning
Celebrating the importance of scent education, we welcome you to come smell-play with us. We are delighted that two experts in olfactory education / communication – Simon Niedenthal and Lotte Meeuwissen – have agreed to take us along in their work and engage with us in playful learning with scents. All smell-thusiasts are welcome: whether you are interested in learning more about the Odeuropa project or smell heritage more broadly, interested in exploring smell/scent as a part of your research, or want to apply scent in an educational or museum setting. Come play and smell with us!
