What is OPEN ART Ærø?

The artists and craftspeople of Ærø have joined forces to create a very special art event for those who love to geek out on creative processes and learn more about the people behind them. 

During Easter, they will open the doors to their galleries and workshops and invite you in for an informal look and a chat about them, their art and what inspires them. 

See opening hours further down the page.
