The Union
Tartu Artists’ Union (MTÜ Tartu Kunstnike Liit) is a non-profit organisation comprising professional artists, art theorists and art workers. The aim of the union is to promote art and create opportunities for professional development. Other tasks of the union include creating opportunities for its members to take part in exhibitions, representing the members and art in general politically, establishing professional contacts and promoting collaboration between organisations and artists locally as well as internationally.
Tartu Art House
Tartu Artists’ Union has been organising exhibitions in the exhibition spaces of the Tartu Art House at Vanemuise Street 26 since the building was completed in 1959. Currently the building houses three galleries: the Large Gallery on the 2nd floor (172 m²), the Small Gallery on the ground floor (57 m²) and the Monumental Gallery facing the courtyard (57 m²). The spaces serve as a comfortable venue for holding solo exhibitions but also for organising larger exhibition projects, which occupy all of the galleries at the same time.
The exhibition plan is put together based on an open call one year in advance. Approximately 27 exhibitions are held annually. Tartu Art House’s galleries are open from Wednesday to Monday from 12 am to 6 pm. Guided tours are available upon reservation. Our gallery offers free workshops for groups from schools and kindergartens. Admission to the exhibitions and tours is also free.
