PRESENTATIONThe Museum of Cultures studies and represents the peoples and cultures of the world and records their cultural heritage. The emphasis of the collecting and research activities is documenting present-day cultural phenomena. Exhibitions The exhibitions provide perspectives into both past and present and the everyday life of peoples throughout the world, as well as in multicultural Finland. The aim of the exhibitions is to provide alternative ways of reviewing the development of the world and also to remind of the existence of small, nearly extinct or repressed peoples and groups. In addition to the permanent exhibition Fetched from afar, the museum annually presents one larger and one smaller temporary exhibition. The exhibitions will hold events and during weekends offer guided tours free-of-charge. Education The Museum of Cultures serves education by offering material regarding the exhibitions. Many of our exhibitions are suited to educational purposes on such subjects as history, religion, ethics and philosophy, mother tongue, geography and arts. Information lists By registering with the Museum of Cultures information list you will receive information regarding up-coming exhibitions and events into your inbox. There is a special list for teachers for informing about the educational activities of the museum. |
