  • After two weeks working in the symposium CHILDREN'S LABYRINTH most of the work is done. A neglected area of the LABYRINTH is transformed to a special place for children. Here they can go around and find the spaces, objects and paths the artists have created. This LABYRINTH is made to go in, to play and to add also something. The LABYRINTH will never be finished, it is a growing project and after the artists also the children are invited to participate in it.

    In contrast with the regular part of the LABYRINTH, this part is not clear up, the area has to be inviting to start doing something. If children want to reorganize a part for themselves it is possible, they can use the material what is left.

    The artists have added art works which fits in the space. Constructed walls and a light  tower; different creatures coming from different directions; objects that invite to go in, to swing or to let them balance. With and through these art works children can feel their relation with nature and art. It  appeals on their imagination and invites to interact.

    The place can be useful for school programs, but also for families to let their children have great experiences.

    The opening of the new part of the LABYRINTH is on Saturday May 29 at 15.00. Every one is welcome and the entrance is for free. On Sunday there are open doors from 10-17 and also no entrance fee.

    The CHILDREN'S LABYRINTH is open during summer from Tuesday - Sunday from 10-17
    entrance fee for children 2€.

    From October 1st until April 30th the LABYRINTH is open on Saturday and Sunday from 12-16.

    Curator of this symposium is the sculptor Lucien den Arend living and working in Kangasniemi.
    A.I.E.S.M. manager for Finland.
