Casa-Museo Antonio Padrón. Indian Art Center — Attraction in Gáldar

The tourist information office suggested we pay a visit to this interesting, unusual art museum, garden and house displaying art studio of local artist Antonio Padron. It was free entry and information leaflet was given to us in English. I found some of the paintings a bit unusual and had to stand at the back of the room to see some of them from a distance to full appreciate the subject matter. The garden was a lovely place to relax and listen to the fountain. My favourite bit was the house in the garden with his art studio and equipment on display upstairs. Their was toilets and a lift up to art studio if you have mobility issues. Well worth visiting if...

What a wonderful celebration of a unique artist's work and life. Lovely lady at the entrance who explained so much about the island's culture and the methods used by Antonio Pardon.

I was happy just to see the paintings for free, but the spontaneously guided visit by the most kind, educated young man who works there made my day. We had a lovely conversation and learnt so much about the artist, his work, and the Canary Islands in general. Thank...
