We are excited to invite you to the upcoming Vernissage event, an esteemed gathering that brings together local and international artists to exhibit their artworks in the Laxenburg Castle, fostering a rich cultural exchange within our community. This year's event titled, Fusion of Forms, promises to be a captivating exploration of the integration of science and art.

The event is open to everyone, and we warmly welcome you to join us in celebrating the vibrant intersection of art and science. Whether you are an art enthusiast, a member of the scientific community, or simply looking for an inspiring cultural experience, this Vernissage is not to be missed.
