Arts and Cultural Affairs Council

The Christiansø Arts and Cultural Affairs Council was formed in 2018. 
The restoration of Store Tårn created a need for an advisory body with expertise in culture and art to ensure that the exhibitions in the two towers – permanent as well as changing – are of a high artistic and interpretation-related standard.

The Christiansø Arts and Cultural Affairs Council provides advice and inspiration on the development of the art history museum in Lille Tårn, as well as on the exhibitions and activities in the new and improved Store Tårn.
