Mostly large tempoary exhibitions. There is also a room where you can sit ans draw yourself, a cafe and a restaurant. It's easy to find and has quite a lot of parking, free for 4 hours.

Fantastic location, museum and exhibition at the waterfront of the Swedish west coast. Skärshamn itself is worth while a visit , but make sure you include a visit to the water colour museum as well as the well stocked water colour museum shop.

A very nice little art museum with a great restaurant (Vatten). The surroundings are to die for 😍

The Watercolor Museum — it might sound a bit dull, especially if, like me, you immediately picture vaguely painted sailboats or cows. But the visit was fantastic. There was an exhibition on Nordic Patterns, which didn’t have much to do with watercolors, but for anyone who loves Scandinavian design, it was absolutely beautiful. To focus only on that exhibition might be a bit unfair, though, because the museum clearly aims to show — also through its permanent collection — that there’s a wealth of modern and innovative work to discover. And even if there isn’t a temporary exhibition that’s quite to your taste, the restaurant alone is worth the visit, with its delicious food and fantastic view.

First of all, the museum’s seaside location is breathtakingly beautiful, regardless of the time of year when you visit. In the summer, there are several great places on the adjacent wooden piers and cliffs where you can go for a swim and work on your burgeoning summer tan. While the museum does have a popular restaurant and café, from around late June, a half dozen nearby seafood restaurants open up . To be totally honest, as a visual artist, my preconception of watercolor as a medium wasn’t overwhelmingly positive when I walked in to the Nordic Watercolor Museum. But after spending more than an hour there, I now have a totally different opinion and a lot more respect for the artists that paint with watercolors. I was also genuinely impressed with the museum’s curation and exhibit design. Folks, this is a top-notch destination for art lovers of all ages – in a stunning seaside location along Sweden’s spectacularly gorgeous west coast. Highly recommendable!

Nordiska Akvarellmuseet.. hmmm.. My filling. It’s some mmmagic. the Place, the Build and what you can see in different exhibitions. This all so touching, so truly 😌 Canvases and paintings do things to you that no best student of either Jung or Freud can do. And you leave the door of the hall as if you were a different person 🤪 Our whole family loves this place.
