Experiences for the whole family
In the art park, the duckboardas lead through a changing environment, where art blends seamlessly into the landscape.
The art cafe offers salty and sweet. The appearance of the cafe is characteristically inventive and original for ITE art, and it is surrounded by an enchanted apple orchard.
An art park in Hyvinkää focusing on Finnish visual contemporary folk art
Throughout history, Hyvinkää has shone as the home of many respected artists, such as Helene Schjerfbeck, Tyko Sallinen and Yrjö Saarinen. Next summer, Hyvinkää will rise to the spotlight as a city of art, where Finland’s first art park focusing on Finnish visual contemporary folk art will open. The Middle of Nowhere art park will present a wide range of ITE art (Finnish visual contemporary folk art) with the aim of increasing awareness of ITE artists and art.
ITE art, i.e. art made by self-taught artists, is known for its originality and inventiveness. The Middle of Nowhere art park and summer cafe offer a unique experience combining ITE art and nature.
