HeuARTfest: August 27th till 29th 2010 in St. Martin

Date: 27.08.2010 - 29.08.2010

Every year, during the festival entitled "HayART - art from hay", the Lammertal stages the world's biggest procession of hay figures. Weeks prior to the event, private individuals, clubs and local artists begin creating these hay figures. Built over a wooden skeleton, these frames, some of which are as high as 4 metres tall, are wrapped in hay with the utmost artistry. Finally, the figures are partially dressed up and painted.Aside from great imagination during the planning phase, the project demands technical know-how and excellent handiwork from the artists as they gradually realize their vision.

During the months of September and October, the figures can all be viewed at the various sponsoring establishments. Information about their location is available at the tourist information offices.
