    The project ART ENLARGES THE AREA has ended on December 31 2007.
    Through the support of the EU and also by a grant of SUOMEN KULTTUURIRAHASTO a new vision on art and tourism has been initiated in Etelä-Savo.

    The  project was a very good period for the development of art centre Saksala ArtRadius. It was possible to start, develop and invest in different project parts like: the LABYRINTH, art education, stone symposium and artistic and cultural tourism in the region of Etelä-Savo.

    This project will be a good example how art can be involved in a new tourist image.  

    The report of the project is published on the next 64 pages. Click here to start reading the report.

    After ending the project ART ENLARGES THE AREA there has to be a follow up to continue with this positive start.
    Saksala ArtRadius is working on a plan for INNOVATIVE ACTIVE CULTURAL AND CREATIVE TOURISM
     


    project period June 1 2006 - December 31 2007


    The project is supported by the European Union.
    With this support it is possible to start and continue the ideas of the plan.

    The municipal of Mikkeli supports the idea of the art centre and makes it possible to start the program.
    The news paper Länsi-Savo and the constructor company Lemminkäinen Oy take both part in the start and developing of the program.
    In 2007 Suomen Kulttuurirahasto has given a stipendium to realize different parts of the project.




    With the support and guiding of Etelä-Savo Maakuntaliitto and Etelä-Savon Taidetoimikunta it is possible to create a good network.
    The AllaprimA Foundation supports the art education program by loan the interesting collection of child art.
    Arts Council Finland supports the development of the children's forest, a part of the art education program.
    The bus company De Jong Tours supports the development of the tourist part of the plan.
