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.
