If you appreciate independent printmaking, underground publishing, or rare visual art, this is a unique chance to step inside a working artist studio, listen to a fierce record collection, and grab original pieces from his archive.
What to Expect:
Rare Print Sale: Browse a collection of original posters, zines, art books, and prints at lower-than-usual prices.
Open Studio Tour: Step inside Cult Pump’s working workshop and publishing house.
Underground Vibe: High-energy records, dark surrealism, and a very different kind of Halloween haunt.
Caffeine and Sugar: Our friends at Caféen KBH+ are opening specially for the day to keep blood sugar up and existential dread down with hot coffee and cake.
Whether you're a dedicated collector of underground art or simply looking for an offline, creative alternative to typical Halloween events in Copenhagen, drop by and see for yourself that things can get plenty dark long before the sun goes down.
