Story & Folklore

A short walk uphill from the centre of Reykjavík leads to Kaolin, an artist-run gallery where several ceramic makers present and sell their work. The changing display offers visitors an opportunity to explore local craft, glazing and functional designs without buying a museum ticket. It is a retail gallery at Skólavörðustígur 5, not a large exhibition museum.
