Tickets and details at the source

Edges and Shadows (Sombras Encantadas) is the first solo exhibition of the American artist Thomas Threinen, at the Museu Casa do Arcano on São Miguel from 9 October to 4 December 2026. The show is made up of 19 canvases. Their subjects are places around the island, the small details of island life, and Azorean food and identity seen through the eyes of a foreign painter. If you are already on São Miguel it makes a good stop on a day along the north coast or a rainy afternoon; it is not a reason on its own to fly in from another island.

Practical information

The museum is in Ribeira Grande on the north coast of São Miguel, in the town centre. Buses run there from Ponta Delgada; by car it is a short drive.
