Spring Exhibition 2026: Art Experiences for Whitsun at "Geværfabrikken"
Join us for this season's big art event! Over the Whitsun (Pentecost) holiday, the North Funen Artists association invites you to the Spring Exhibition 2026. Discover unique works by 23 local artists, including a special exhibition featuring personal interpretations of design icon Verner Panton.
Whitsun on North Funen is all about art. From May 23rd to May 25th, 2026, the old "Geværfabrikken" (The Rifle Factory) in Otterup will be transformed into a vibrant gallery. 23 members of the association will showcase their latest work in an exhibition celebrating local craftsmanship and limitless creativity.
Special Exhibition: The Artists’ Take on Verner Panton
As a special highlight this year, experience a unique theme: North Funen artists have drawn inspiration from the world-famous design icon Verner Panton, who grew up right here on North Funen. Look forward to seeing the artists' own personal versions and interpretations of Panton’s colorful and geometric universe.
