Art Days (Kunsttage) Peine

Kunsttage Peine is an arts and crafts fair that brings together artists, craftspeople, designers and creatives with an audience interested in art and craftsmanship. The event gives a wide range of exhibitors the opportunity to showcase their handmade creations, original ideas and one-of-a-kind artworks to the public. Since its launch, Kunsttage Peine has been held regularly twice a year.

The event takes place at the clubhouse of the Corps der Bürgersöhne in Peine, Lower Saxony. It is organised by Stadt Events GmbH, a Hanover-based company that stages numerous cultural events, themed fairs and exhibitions throughout Lower Saxony each year. Kunsttage Peine forms part of the “Kunsttage in der Region” series of events held at various locations across the region. The aim is to keep traditional craft techniques visible and relevant in the digital age while providing artists, craftspeople and other creatives with a platform to showcase and sell their work.

The fair focuses on art, arts and crafts, design and creative handcrafts. Its diverse range includes painting, photography, floristry, glass and ceramic art, as well as work in wood, metal, paper and textiles. Visitors will also find natural soaps, gifts, decorative items for the home and garden, fabric dolls, teddy bears, silk painting, sculptures and individually designed jewellery made from materials such as stainless steel, glass and repurposed cutlery. The emphasis is firmly on unique, handcrafted products rather than standardised, mass-produced goods.

Exhibitors represent a broad spectrum of the visual arts, crafts and creative industries. These include painting, photography, ceramics, jewellery design and floristry, alongside a variety of textile, woodworking, metalworking, glassmaking and papercraft disciplines. As a public event, Kunsttage Peine is primarily aimed at individual visitors. It appeals to art and design enthusiasts, collectors, families and anyone looking for distinctive decorative pieces, jewellery, gifts or handmade one-offs. The event also gives visitors the opportunity to meet the makers in person and learn more about the materials, design ideas and techniques behind their work.

Live demonstrations are another feature of Kunsttage Peine. Some artists and craftspeople work on site, offering visitors an insight into how their pieces are created. Visitors can discover a range of traditional and contemporary craft techniques and see them being put into practice. As a result, Kunsttage Peine is more than simply an exhibition and sales fair: it offers an opportunity to experience art and craftsmanship at first hand.

Overall, Kunsttage Peine combines an exhibition, a retail fair and an engaging arts experience in an event designed for the general public. The focus is on skilled craftsmanship, creative design and direct interaction between makers and visitors. The Corps der Bürgersöhne clubhouse in Peine provides an appropriate setting in which to showcase art, crafts and creative work.

The Art Days (Kunsttage) will take place on 2 days from Saturday, 07. November to Sunday, 08. November 2026 in Peine.
