For whom
The curious
Perhaps you’ve seen furry art or heard about furry conventions, but couldn’t find a way in. That’s understandable: Furries don’t usually promote or proselytize their community. There’s no official organisation. Instead, it’s a loose collection of artists and enthusiasts celebrating their own ideas of humanity.
But there are ways to learn, watch, and casually explore. Stichting Otterdam seeks ways to expand these through collaborations and productions.
The two-day Otterdam Furry Arts Festival was an expression of this. Held at major arts institution Nieuwe Instituut, it brought together artists, furries, academics, and families – many of whom had no previous involvement with the furry fandom. (30 percent of tickets went to people who provided no furry name.)
