Welcome to the Winter edition of the HIAP Open Studios!
The event offers the unique opportunity to meet up with the resident artists and curators, and get a glimpse of the work that they have been developing during their residency. The HIAP Open Studios event takes place in the second half of each residency season, in March, May, and October.
This year’s Open Studios will also showcase work-in-progress from Ukrainian artists who are residents of the Ukrainian Solidarity Residencies Programme network.
The current partners of the programme are AARK, Art Centre Salmela, Connecting Points programme, Fairres, Goethe-Institut Finnland, HIAP – Helsinki International Artist Programme, Loviisa Art Support Association, Nelimarkka Museum, Pro Artibus, The Finnish Artists’ Studio Foundation, The Finnish Illustration Association Kuvittajat, and Värtsilä Artist Residency. In 2023, the programme is supported by Kone Foundation and Nordic Culture Point.
