About Dalslands konstmuseum

Dalslands konstmuseum
The museum
The museum building is based on ecological principles with natural materials that blend into the surrounding environment.
Inside the museum, opened in 1995, there is a permanent collection of traditional Dalsland design objects and art, and three different galleries for temporary exhibitions. The museum is open from March to December, during which 12 exhibitions representing Swedish contemporary art are organized. The museum’s interpretation of contemporary art include traditional image -based artistic expressions as well as fashion, design and craftwork.

Shop
Inside the museum you will find our shop which offers cultural magazines, books on art and books about Dalsland, exclusive Swedish crafts, games and puzzles for children as well as posters and self-produced art cards. The supply in the museum shop varies during the year's exhibition periods with news linked to the exhibitions theme. We also have a small shop in the café where we sell tea, honey, postcards, etc.

Sculpture park
In the museum park there are a number of sculptures and some walking paths. Down by the lake you will find our own guest harbor where you can take a dip. There is also an outdoor scene where we invite musicians to play. It's also works as a scene for taking group photos, wedding pictures or for play and performance. The frame, “Frame the nature” is made by artist Eric Langert. Our chickens and bees also live in the park.
