Please join us in a manifestation for peace and friendship in the world, on Saturday, February 17 th at 12.00 at Söderlångvik Manor.

We challenge everyone on Kimitoön to participate in the construction of the Söderlångvik Peace and Friendship Artwork.

We want to build something beautiful together with you in response to the brutal wars going on in the world. The war in Ukraine has no end in sight, and the Gaza Strip is right now the most dangerous place in the world for a child to live.

We build when others destroy.

How?

Fill a litre TetraPak with water and decorate as you wish. It can be natural materials, watercolours, flowers or a pretty napkin. Freeze your building blocks outdoors or in your freezer at home.

When?

You can bring your building block to Söderlångvik Manor at a time that suits you best or no later than 17 February at 12.00 when the Peace and Friendship Manifestation begins.

Where?

The artwork will be built on the hill above the museum.

Program on Sat, Feb 17th at 12 o’clock noon:

Welcome
Annika Jansson, Managing Director of the farm

Speeches for peace
Kristiina Tiainen, Children’s culture program Manager, Sagalund
Ville Laitinen from Luontoliitto and nature entrepreneur
