Friends of
the Schlumpers

The non-profit organization “Friends of the Schlumpers” was established in 1985. It has as its goal the public recognition of the creative ability possessed by handicapped people and seeks to facilitate their social integration and artistic development.
The organization evolved the arts project “Schlumper by Profession” and for many years was its primary sponsor. In this capacity, the “Friends of the Schlumpers” founded the “Schlumper Collection” to preserve the group’s art and art objects.
In order to secure the artists’ future, the association in 2002 passed the responsibility for the project “Schlumper by Profession” to the Alsterdorf Evangelical Foundation and their workshop project “alsterarbeit gGmbH”. The “Friends of the Schlumpers” nonetheless remain in charge of marketing and the group’s exhibition activities. All of the associations resources are devoted to the artists.
The association “Friends of the Schlumpers” supports the group’s art both materially and idealistically and retains the ownership and sole responsibility for the care and maintenance of the entire “Schlumper Collection” of paintings and art objects. With the “Schlumper Collection”, the unique artistic achievement of the Schlumpers is now being preserved in its entirety.
