Art & nature hand in hand
The 18 art points are spread throughout Ommen, Arriën, Witharen, Varsen and Balkbrug - perfect to combine with a nice bike ride through the Vechtdal. Some locations are studios where you can see artists live at work, others are idyllic gardens or special buildings that you normally only admire from the outside. Everywhere you taste the mix of nature, culture and craftsmanship.↵.
From paintings and drawings to leather bags, glassware, ceramics, hats, textiles, recycled art and unique sculptures; each stop has its own atmosphere and story. And of course, the artists themselves are ready to take you into their world.
