Today Renske and I visited the seventh edition of the Night of Silver in Schoonhoven. Silver, flames, moonlight and Schoonhoven are the four key words for the Night of Silver. During this evening, over 30 gold and silversmiths open their doors to interested public and make it possible to visit some of the many studios, galleries or workshops Schoonhoven is rich in.
This year The Night of Silver is characterized by the chain of office. Not only because the chains of office of the five Communes of the Krimpenerwaard by the merging of these Communes fell into disuse, but also because the chain of office of Schoonhoven was made exactly 100 years ago made.
As of 18:00 pm we were welcomed in the main reception area in the former Turf basement of City Hall with a nice cup of coffee or tea. The choice to use a city guide to accompany us on our route along all the participants, all the while telling about the rich history of the Silvertown, we have rejected. Thinking back to our visit to Prague, I dare to trust my private guide, let Renske determine the route and we walk around on your own. Each open studio is represented by a cozy burning fire basket.
On the way home we drive along Herens & Herens. Always nice to close such a successful evening in a "candy store". Renske thanks for the invitation, it was great!
