Tshirt memory at local music festival

During the weekend of September 17th, the 26th edition of Breda Barst starts. And because this is an unforgettable weekend, students of AKV St. Joost came up with the T-shirt memory project. They designed prints and made two t-shirts with each print. If you buy a t-hirt at Breda Barst and can find your T-buddy, you’ll get a free beer.
