The centre’s objective is to preserve the rich handicraft traditions in Tinn and to offer local artists their own production and sales premises.
The exhibition here is a combination of an art exhibition and a sales exhibition, with more than 100 exhibitors displaying their work which ranges from handicrafts to woodwork, knives, national costumes and a superb exhibition of "rosemaling" (a peasant style of painting used to decorate furniture, etc., and consisting of floral designs).
