In addition to the main collection, Museum JAN offers a broad and appealing exhibition program on modern and contemporary art and design.
JAN and JAN
Museum Jan van der Togt changed its name to Museum JAN in January 2020. JAN refers to the founder of the museum: Jan van der Togt, but it also refers to Jan Verschoor. He was Van der Togt’s advisor, the co-founder of the museum and former curator. He is also an artist, and his work forms part of the permanent collection.
House
The museum was built around Verschoor’s home on the Dorpsplein in Amstelveen, where he still lives! From the museum, you can enter Verschoor’s living room and marvel at his art collection.
