About Arvika Ljus!
Arvika Ljus! is an annual light art exhibition in central Arvika, with the aim of making contemporary art more accessible to everyone by lowering the threshold for experiencing art. After a break in 2025, it is now time for the 6th edition, “Catharsis.” Over the years, the event has created a shared collective memory by bringing great art to a smaller town and connecting people during the dark season.
“Catharsis” is the name of this year’s exhibition, where 9 international artists will create their light installations in central Arvika.
