A taste of local art
Next Event: 12th - 15th September 2024
There was a time when Val Gardena was known throughout the world not for its spectacular scenery and fabulous ski resorts, but for the excellent quality of its woodcarvings. Over the course of the past century, millions of pieces of art have left our valley to be displayed in churches, institutions and private homes all over the planet.
While tourism has taken over as the main source of business for Val Gardena in the last decades, the valley’s artistic veins are far from extinguished. And every year, towards the end of summer, the UNIKA art fair takes place to prove it. During these days, woodcarvings, paintings, bronze sculptures and much more are displayed at the Roncadizza tennis center. Over three dozen artists participate in the event.
