Worth the visit if you make it to Andros this year. Afternoon summer hours are 6-8pm. The temporary exhibit this year is wonderful. The permanent collection is also interesting.
it happened to ho on a Tuesday August 2014 with other friends the highest sesson of the year the museum was closed !!! Most museums are Closed on Mondays !!! and sertenly not in a high sesson, Sunce is a privat Museum they sure can afford to Open the Museum 7 Days a week, !!!!!! extremely Disappointed
I visit Andros almost very year and I always make sure I go to visit the museum. I loved Sofia Vari's exhibits especially the sculptures and jewellery! They seem to compliment the amazing building but also its identity within the infinite blue! With the same price visit the permanent exhibition just opposite!
Choose the sunniest spot of Chora, the most authentic picture showing a path from a greek island and you have already found the Museum! Just to see how a great greek sculptor (Michael Tombros) inspired some of his most memorable creations.Also an intresting exhibition of Sofia Vari, a world famous sculptor, only for this summer.Place of culture, place of western civilization, a very pleasant walk...this is our beloved Greece!
We were on vacation and decided to check out the Museum of Contemporary Art. Sophia Vari sculptures were featured, and it was a great exhibit.
Pls don't miss this beautiful museum of Art !! Even if you are not an art lover...you will be amazed by this small "Art nest !!! " they always have interesting exhibitions. This year the museum presents the sculptures o the famous artist Mrs Sophia Vari!! It is so worth to stop by !!
Very nice museum in the charming old center of Hora, we discovered a wonderful exhibition of famous artist Sofia Vari, sculptures, paintings, and jewelry ("wearable sculptures"), stunning !
There is always a confusion about the open hours of the Museum. Even the local people, don`t seem to know about it
www.moca-andros.gr for more info.There a 2 buildings, on either side of the road.In one building there was a 3 floor exhibition of Sophia Vari's works. Sculptures, sculptured jewellery and watercolour artwork.The other building had sculptures from a variety of artists.
Interesting exhibits and well worth the visit. Need to check when the museum is open as they are only opening on certain days which could mean a wasted journey to Andros Town.
