Join the Holland Museum & The Van Raalte Institute for a free, community event in honor of Tulip Time 2026 as award‑winning Dutch author Anne‑Gine Goemans shares the story behind Ziekzoekers, her compelling novel about a Dutch bulb‑growing family. Goemans will also offer an exciting sneak peek into the research for her upcoming novel, inspired in part by Holland, Michigan. It’s a unique chance to connect literature, heritage, and local history during one of Holland’s most beloved celebrations!
This event is a partnership between the Holland Museum, the Van Raalte Institute, Nelis Dutch Village, Windmill Island, & Tulip Time.
