Come and be creative in the Nationalmuseum’s studio! On Thursday evenings this autumn, you can explore some of the fundamental materials and techniques of art. Try drawing or water colour painting. Free drop-in. No prior experience needed. Open to all!
With inspiration from artworks in the collections or from suggestions available in the studio, we’ll explore the possibilities and limitations of materials through various techniques.
The number of spots is limited. Due to high demand, there may be a line and a waiting time before you can enter the studio.
