It is Easter, and it is time for Konstrundan, the most popular "Art Tour" of Österlen. From Friday the 30th of March, there is the 50th version of Konstrundan with not less than 97 exhibiting artists!
Already in 1968, members of The Artist Association of Österlen, ÖSKG, started with this great event.The idea was cleverly simple. Hundreds of artists, all at the same time, all over Österlen, open their ateliers and galleries for visitors.
Konstrundan is a wonderful opportunity to check on some good art, but also to meet many artists and see where and how they work. Konstrundan goes on for 10 days, up to the 10th, so many artists can be visited. MORE
