We attended during their annual festival which is about a week long. During this time, I was delighted to find out that admission is free, and on top of that, the day that we attended actually included a special 'Art and Sound' event in which we were allowed to experiment and play with tone chimes, which was such a magical and elevated experience.

A beautiful and inspiring place filled with creativity and imagination. The exhibits are thoughtful and unique — like the one in the photo, blending art with storytelling in such a striking way. The gallery’s open space, natural light, and calm atmosphere make it a perfect spot to slow down and enjoy art from a fresh perspective. Definitely worth a visit!
