About CulturaMobila

 

“What was good about the project was the whole project.
What was bad about the project was that it stopped”

CulturaMobila is a community arts partnership based in Fiskars, Pohja/Pojo. Founded in 2004 by playwright/director Julian Garner and visual artist/scenographer Hanne Horte, CulturaMobila exists to:
• bring arts products to - and make them meaningful for - people who might not otherwise have access to them
• to provide people in small communities with qualitative arts activities both as audience and participants
• to break down barriers between different social, linguistic and demographic groups
• to build artistic networks within and between small communities
• to demystify distinctions between professional and non-professional artistic practice
• to validate creativity as a universal prerogative.

CulturaMobila is equipped for small and medium-scale touring.

We also undertake large-scale, site-specific commissions.

Participatory programmes designed in collaboration with clients/partner groups.

Service, provided in Swedish, Finnish and English, include:.

• creative partnerships
• school residencies (i.e. village schools)
• professional performances/exhibitions
• participatory workshops
• collaborative arts projects and events

CulturaMobila was nominated for a Finnish Government Arts Prize in 2008.
