Do you know what István Szőnyi's favourite subjects were as a painter, or how he and his fellow artists passed the time in summer? Who are the stained glass windows of the church designed by Károly Kós? Who was the lady of the blue shuttered houses on the Danube who organised the Flower Olympics in Zebegény?
Our tour starts from the museum, where you can get acquainted with István Szőnyi's home and studio, see a selection of his works depicting his family, the village everyday life, the Danube Bend and the landscape of Zebegény. Our walk continues through the streets of Zebegény, visiting the cemetery, the Calvary Hill, and then from the lookout we will see several sights of the village. We'll see where Szőnyi painted his most beautiful pictures, visit the Chapel of the Rock, and finish our tour at the Church of the Assumption of Our Lady of the Snow, designed by Kós Károly. Along the way, we will recall the village's past with anecdotes and archive photos and tell you about the artists whose lives and art are intertwined with Zebegék.

Be both painters and models, take each other's portraits!
No qualifications are necessary, anyone can join in the collaborative creation. Couples can sit facing each other and capture each other's facial features using a technique of their choice, with all the tools and props provided.
This session is not just for lovers, it is open to anyone who wants to try out the sensations of studying the facial features of a fellow human being. One thing is for sure, the experience will bring you closer together, and it's no secret that the longer you focus on each other's faces, the more you discover about them, and the more you like them.
Even if you are not a Leonardo and you don't have the talent of drawing Szőnyi, you don't have to push the program. You can also choose a montage technique and use the elements we've collected (eyes, eyebrows, lips) to create a portrait of your partner, picking out the details that most resemble them.
