Colony Ramazzoti

The International Art Colony "Ramazzotti" is an annual art colony held at the lakeside city of Ohrid in North Macedonia. The colony runs every August for up to 20 invited artists. The colony attracts artists from all of Europe and North America and finishes with an exhibition of the artists' work.
