LÁ Art Museum — Attraction in Hveragerðisbær

Free admission and open until 5pm! I love art galleries. I spent maybe 1.5 hours here looking at everything and watching the full video about My mother’s dream and some of the Skinnings video (it was beautiful shapes animations but then got a bit creepy when it started drawing people-esque things).

I also liked the graphite art with gold and silver metallic accents.

There is a gift shop with artworks, books, posters, postcards, and little trinkets and chocolates for sale. There also appeared to be a workshop for kids at the time.

There is also a sitting area with tables and chairs for board games.

The washroom smelled lovely as well. There was a guest wifi network but password protected and I didn’t ask so can’t comment on the wifi quality.

We’re here visiting from the U.S. and this is a must-see stop (especially if you have kids) if you’re an...

Cute modern art museum, totally free, four exhibit rooms showing off new work by Icelandic artists. Good stop on your way to the nearby geothermal park (though that is temporarily closed).

There's a bright and modern cafe inside as well, which served espresso and coffee drinks. (A lot of cafes seem closed for covid still in May of 2021, so we were happy to find...
