Britas salon

Britas salon

In 1963 Carl and Elise Eldh’s daughter Brita Eldh (1907–2000) turned her father’s studio into a museum. Brita ran the museum for a long period and lived in an small apartment added to the museum building in 1968. Brita was active at the site for about 40 years. The museum presentation of the collection, belongings and artworks, is largely her work eventhough much remain as her father left it.

Brita hosted cultural, poetry and music soirees, to which the audience was invited to experience art and live performances among the artworks. In 2023 the museum started reviving this part of the museum’s history in a series of salons, as a tribute to Brita Eldh, her life and work.

Amongst the sculptures and other belongings left behind, musicians, writers and artists now meet the public in a series of salons. The focus is on a live setting and a vibrant atmosphere.
