A Historic Celebration and a Meaningful Gift from the Jimmy Nelson Foundation

Last Saturday, something truly special happened on the Zaanse Schans. As the grand finale of the Ode aan Nederland exhibition at the Zaans Museum, twelve Dutch communities proudly took to the open-air runway in their traditional dress. Against the backdrop of historic windmills, hundreds of visitors gathered to witness this breathtaking fashion show—an unprecedented celebration of Dutch heritage and identity. But for the Jimmy Nelson Foundation, this day was about more than just celebration. It was about giving back. We are incredibly proud to announce that, as part of our commitment to honouring and preserving cultural heritage, we have donated a collection of artworks to the communities who participated in Between the Sea and the Sky. These images—created in collaboration with the very people who keep these traditions alive—now belong to them, ensuring their heritage is not just documented, but returned to those who live and breathe it every day. Heritage is not something of the past—it is a living, evolving force that connects us all. By supporting communities in celebrating and safeguarding their traditions, we hope to inspire future generations to take pride in their identity and keep these stories alive. To everyone who participated, attended, and supported this event—thank you. This moment will stay with us forever.
