Meet the people behind the work
Art looks different when you meet the person who made it.
Every spring, artists across Blekinge open their studios to visitors.
Talk to ceramicists. Watch printmakers at work. Discover hidden studios in villages, forests and along the coast.
It's less about ticking off galleries and more about finding places you wouldn't have discovered otherwise.
Made by people, not machines Ceramics. Glass. Wood. Textiles. Jewellery.
Across Blekinge, artists and craftspeople still make things by hand.
Visit working studios. Watch the creative process. Take home something with a story behind it.

Some visitors plan every museum.
Others simply wander until something catches their eye.
Both approaches work here. A concert in a harbour. A gallery inside an old factory. A sculpture in the middle of a square. A tiny studio hidden down a country lane.
Culture in Blekinge isn't something you rush through.
It's something you discover.
