The Sea Monster Cage
Rósastemning, a cultural association consisting of designer Katarina Blahutova, artist and sound designer Þorsteinn Eyfjörð and Owen Hindley, programmer and interactive designer, offers The Sea Monster Cage for guests of Krummi's Kids Club. The Sea Monster Cage is an interactive experience for children where they are encouraged to learn about Icelandic sea monsters, express their fears through art-making and then let their fear take the lead in a theatrical improvisation. The workshop is supported by the Children's Culture Fund.

Stay and Turn to Stone – Treasure hunt
Treasure hunt in the exhibition Stay and Turn to Stone – Where did the Elf Queen go? Outside in the moonlight perhaps? Who is the blind dog leading? How many ghosts are there in the artwork Self-Portrait with Seven Ghosts? Those who dare can then come and create spooky folklore creatures.

The Krummi Kids’ Club hosts a fun and engaging program every month, inviting curious children to discover the artworks in the National Gallery of Iceland’s collection, create their own masterpieces, and play in a stimulating and enriching environment.

Children's Culture Festival 2026
The settler Ingólfur Arnarson looks over Reykjavík from his pedestal at Arnarhóll, but stands also in the blue hall of the Einar Jónsson Museum. We sit down with Ingólfur in the Blue Hall and help him make high seat pillars and decorate them in a modern way with patterns and colors.

Sparkling Sand Workshop
On the way up the stairs in the museum we see a large wall-art by Ragna Róbertsdóttir that glitters like jewels. We examine it with flashlights and see the light sparkling in the glass, and then make our own artwork in the spirit of Ragna's murals with sand and natural materials.

Elf Crown Workshop
Elves and hidden people are creatures of nature that protect nature and are an important part of Icelandic folklore. We look at the works at the exhibition Stay and Turn to Stone, especially the beautiful elf queen with a magnificent crown in Finnur Jónsson's work; I Stood Outside in the Moonlight. Then we use various materials to decorate our own crowns that we make together.

Princess workshop in the sculpture garden
In the sculpture garden by the Einar Jónsson Museum there is a beautiful statue of a Princess sleeping in a Harp. The statue is connected to the story of Sigurður Fáfnisbani. We look at the statue from all angles and create our own version of it. Anyone who wants to can come in princely or princess costumes. What kind of instrument would you like to sleep in?
