Helsinki Forecast: An Online Talk on Helsinki’s Art Scene

Join the Association of Women in the Arts (AWITA) for a concise and insightful 30-minute online event exploring Finland’s unique and often overlooked art landscape.

Speakers include:

  • Kati Kivinen: Co-curator Helsinki Biennial and Head of Exhibitions at HAM Helsinki Art Museum
  • Sara Kärpänen: Programme Director, Arts of the Finnish Institute
  • Josefina Nelimarkka, Artist
  • The event is moderated by Vanessa Vainio: Art Consultant and Curator
