Open Doors Day at Korundi

Korundi will host an Open Doors Day on Saturday, 12 September 2026, as part of Rovaniemi Week celebrations. Admission to the exhibitions is free. The day will also feature a workshop, guided tours, and dance performances.

The Rovaniemi Art Museum currently features two contemporary art exhibitions filled with stories and perspectives from the North. In Sanctuary of Dreams by Mia Hamari, wooden and ceramic figures take over the space. Hamari is a sculptor who lives and works in Simo, and her dreamlike works intertwine past and present, reality and fiction.

Also on display is the Guests of Honour exhibition, celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Rovaniemi Art Museum. The exhibition presents favourites selected by both visitors and museum staff from the Jenny and Antti Wihuri Foundation Collection. It includes works by leading Finnish artists from the 1980s to the present day. This exhibition is not to be missed!

Mini Tours

These relaxed 20-minute mini tours offer visitors an opportunity to explore the exhibitions with a guide. During the tour, the guide introduces the exhibition themes and highlights a selection of artworks. After the tour, visitors are welcome to continue exploring the exhibition at their own pace.
