Art Without Borders at Reykjavík City Hall this weekend
The annual Art Without Borders art and crafts market takes place at Reykjavík City Hall the weekend of Nov. 8-9, 2025. Open from 1 to 5 p.m. both Saturday and Sunday.
Art Without Borders is an arts festival that highlights art by disabled people. The festival takes place every year in October and has gained a special place in cultural life throughout Iceland. The focus is on ensuring that art by disabled people is valued equally with other art, and the festival has also sparked more discussion about the representation of disabled artists in the arts. The festival features all art forms through collaboration between artists, theater groups and musicians. This year's festival runs from Oct. 9 to Nov. 15 and features a diverse program.
