The people of Bačka Topola are proud that the Bačka Topola Art Colony, founded in 1953, was the second art colony in the whole of former Yugoslavia. The Art Colony building stands on the shore of Bačka Topola Lake, 5 kilometres from the town, above the beautiful and ecologically important Bećarska Valley. Thanks to a project for the development of fine arts in the Bačka region under the IPA cross-border cooperation programme, the building was renovated in the spring and summer of 2014.
Visits are possible by appointment.
The building has eight double rooms with bathrooms, a kitchenette and a multi-purpose hall that can be used for lectures, exhibitions or as a dining room. Since 2018 it can also be used for tourism.
Far from the town and its noise, in beautiful natural surroundings rich in plant and animal life, it is ideal for art colonies and outdoor school programmes.
