The NLCLUB is 100% Dutch. And 100% New York.
The NLCLUB is more than a cozy outpost where Dutch people can enjoy a beer, a bitterbal, and some old school “gezelligheid.” We’re a community for anyone who is Dutch, or Dutch at heart. For anyone who wants to enjoy Dutch culture in New York, and socialize with great people from Holland, New York, and everywhere.
The NLCLUB meets monthly and holds regular events at Salmagundi in Manhattan – 47th Fifth Avenue, NYC 10003.

General Manager
Katherine Vos van Liempt (Den Haag, 1984) is General Manager of The Netherland Club of New York together with Veerle. She received her Bachelor degree in Media & Entertainment Management at the Haarlem Business School. In parallel, she built her company Arts Universal where she booked, managed and produced various shows in the Netherlands, the Middle East, and Japan. Ever since her NYC based internship in 2004 with Apricot Brown ltd, she longed to move back. When ID&T announced they were opening an office in New York, she took the opportunity and moved to NYC in 2012 as the project manager of Sensation USA.
Katherine has a true heart for theater and while in New York a dream came true when she was asked to co-produce Broadways The Visit, receiving a Tony Nomination for Best Musical. Now as General Manager of the NL CLUB Katherine is very happy to work closely with her counterpart Veerle van Buuren – Stramrood and together building and expanding the club by focusing on our wonderful community, exciting partnerships, and a dynamic cultural repertoire.
