Markt der Gaben in Villa Sträuli, Winterthur

Saturday 29. November 2025, 16:00 - 22:00

On the first weekend of Advent, Villa Sträuli presents a new format: the Markt der Gaben, or Market of Gifts – an event that draws on the tradition of annual gifts in art associations and brings it into the present day. The focus is on the gift – understood as artistic expression, as a contribution to the community. Discover new works fresh from the studio, learn their stories, and engage in conversation with the artists. Find your perfect match and take it home with you!

Free Entrance.
