Second Annual Hygge Open House Week

Hygge Open House

We had such a great time last winter hosting a week-long open house based on the concept of Hygge, we decided to make it an annual festive event at 1+1=1 Gallery. We hope Downtown Helena takes up the Hygge idea next winter, for the February First Friday event.  Let’s do it up right next month, when everybody in Helena is lookin for something to cheer them up, some great way to hang out with friends, enjoy good drinks, food, comraderie and art.

We kick off the week with our first art exhibit of the year, the All Artist Winter Review.
