This fair provides a unique opportunity to get a glimpse of the many art, crafts and design studios in Iceland in one place. It has been held annually since 2006 and the demand for the event continues to grow, both from those wishing to exhibit and visitors.
At the fair, you can find leather goods, jewellery, clothes and shoes, artwork made from horn, bones and paper, wood-carving and pottery and textiles.
