Villvin Crafts Market is the country's largest gathering of professional Nordic crafts.
We promise an inspiring party in form, color and lushness when over 100 professional artisans from Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Norway gather in the square and around Risør's beautiful inner harbor on the second weekend in July.
Unique works in ceramics, glass, textiles, metal, leather, wood, paper, wicker and brushwork are presented and sold here.
There will be artist talks on stage, a children's workshop and an award ceremony for the most outstanding participant!
