About

Sandgrund Lars Lerin, situated on Västra Torggatan 28 in Karlstad, is the artist’s permanent gallery where his most recent works and a rotating selection of his private collection are on display year‑round. The gallery, housed in the former Sandgrund dance hall, offers visitors a relaxed environment with a café open daily from 11:00 to 15:30, providing light refreshments and a chance to soak in the art without rush. Accessible parking is available behind the building and the space is fully adapted for visitors with reduced mobility. While the gallery does not offer regular guided tours or public talks, guests can admire the diverse range of watercolor, oil, and graphic works that showcase Lars Lerin’s evolution over thirty years of practice. Typical visits last about two hours, giving visitors ample time to explore the main exhibition halls, the intimate Vita Rummet showcase, and the gift shop where limited edition prints, postcards, and books by the artist are sold. Best visited from late spring through early autumn, when the climate is pleasant and the crowds are moderate, but the gallery welcomes guests every Tuesday to Sunday from 11:00 to 16:00 (excluding public holidays such as New Year's Day, May 1st, Midsummer and Christmas Eve).
