Ontdek IJsseloord 1

On Friday, May 15, 2026, Baptist Arnhem will open its doors during Ontdek IJsseloord 1: an inspiring day when companies on the business park showcase what they do. At Baptist, this day will be entirely dedicated to woodworking, craftsmanship, and inspiration.

For a long time, Baptist has been more than just a store. It is a meeting place for woodworkers — a place where knowledge is shared, workshops are organized, and wonderful new hobbies begin. We have welcomed so many wonderful customers over the years, and many valued, long-lasting relationships have grown from that. Experience this welcoming meeting place for yourself on May 15, 2026, and discover everything there is to enjoy at Baptist and across the rest of the business park!

Our goal? To inspire, inform, and enthuse. Together, we will make it a fantastic day.
