Activities

In IWCA there are more than 10 different types of groups meeting once/twice a month or weekly sharing an ACTIVITY or a hobby. When a group gets too large, the Club will plan a second or a third.
Mostly there is no fee, but only costs to share.

We are proud to offer you the following Club Activity groups:

  • Arabesque: A new culture group,  attending performances of Ballet (classic and modern), Music (classic and jazz) and Theatre in and around Antwerp.
  • Book discussion: Once a month this group meets and discusses a book.
  • Cinema: once a month we choose a movie worth seeing, all genres.
  • Conversation Groups
    • Dutch
    • English
    • French
    • German
    • Spanish
    • Other languages can be added in future.
  • Cuisine: There are several cuisine groups at the moment, all consisting of about 5 to
    8 ladies. Each group meets once a month, but they differ in organisation, date,
    time, place and how to prepare the meal.
  • Dine Out: enjoy an evening meal with your fellow members and discover some of our many restaurants in and around Antwerp.
