The Didrichsen Art Museum

Welcome to the sources of William Morris’s inspiration: a dreamlike garden, the realms of history and legends! The Didrichsen Art Museum presents the first exhibition ever in Finland devoted to the work of William Morris (1834–1896). Morris was a reformer of design and a leading figure in the Arts and Crafts movement, whose rich and fairy-tale-like wallpapers and textiles remain timeless even today. The exhibition’s objects and original sketches are on loan from the collections of the William Morris Gallery and the William Morris Society in the United Kingdom.

The guided tour is funded by Finnbrit. The tour is free for members, and others pay 10€. 

The participants pay for their own entry ticket: Participants are recommended to have the Museum Card, which gives free entry to museum venues all over Finland.

Meet 15 minutes early at The Didrichsen Art Museum, Kuusilahdenkuja 1, 00340 Helsinki.

Finnbrit reserves the right to postpone or cancel the event if the number of enrolments is low.
