Curt Källman Center - Island Öland Sweden

the Vedic Art international summer center

Thousands of people have joined our courses. The renowned Curt Källman Vedic Art Center was founded year 1993 by Curt and his wife Britt-Marie Källman.

We offer Foundation Courses, Continuation Courses, Advanced Courses and Teacher Trainings. All our English-taught courses are to be found in the large, beautiful countryside barns in Näsby - in the midst of a World Heritage! The UNESCO listed World Heritage of Öland consists of a light and open landscape, with wonderful fields inhabited by cows and sheep. The ocean surrounds it all - framing it very well indeed.  You are always close to nature at Näsby! You are welcome to book as an individual participant as well as in a group. All courses run one week from Saturday-Saturday.

From now on you will always want to be closer and closer to yourself. That is your destiny...
— Curt Källman

Comfort and safety

PEACE AND QUIET IN THE STUDIOS

Please note that only short and quiet conversations are allowed inside our studios. Total silence is not required. Saturdays are usually slightly more noisy due to the fact that many people arrive or leave as courses start and end on these days.

INTEGRITY

Do not comment or ask questions about other participants’ paintings. Respect every person's right to be in their own process. If you should have any questions or if the need for support should arise, then please turn to one of the teachers. Never take photos of other participants and their paintings, unless you’ve got their permission to do so.

OUR OWN STUDIO SPACE

We have the right to remain undisturbed while in our own studio space. Please allow for other participants to paint on their own, without entering their personal space. People that are in the process of painting are not to be disturbed at any means.

THE GARDEN
