Lea Lenhart Kunstpunkt 142
Düsseldorf artists open their studios
Have you seen the the blue 'star' posters all around town and wondered what they are for?
Kunstpunkte happens on two weekends in August 21/22 and 28/29. Over 300 artists studios are open to the public, Saturdays from 2 - 8pm and Sundays from 12 - 6pm. The listings of the artists participating can be found on the website www.kunstpunkte.de
Click first on the weekend you would like to go under 'Wochenübersicht' and the list of artists & their addresses will appear.
As the studios are spread all over the city there is also a shuttle bus available. For €15 a bus takes you around selected studios for 3 hours, the tours are accompanied by an artist. Buses leave from The Rheinterrassen, Josef-Beuys-Ufer 33 at various times. Tickets available from Heinrich-Heine-Alle 24.
For the first time, this year's event will also be accompanied by a musical programme.
Leaflets with a map of all participating studios can be found all over the city in bars, cafes and restaurants so you that you can also just make your own way.
