Confessions and White Elephants 4. August 6 pm
Literature Night in Kunsthalle.
What kind of dreams does Africa create? Did it change my life or only my writing or neither? Do we need confessions? (Goodbye woolen pants, hello everlasting youth!) Do we need white elephants? How does feel the longing of two continents? Should I have yet said yes to the proposal?
Writers and poets from Villa Karo, such as Tua Forsström, Fredrik Lång, Juuli Niemi, Tuula Sandström, Eira Stenberg and Kristiina Wallin will give answers to these questions.
The evening will be hosted by the journalist/ producer Matti-Juhani Karila and the writer Juha Vakkuri.
The event is included in the price of the admission: 8 € / 5,50 € / Free for visitors under 18.A Finnish Composer in Africa 11. August 6 pm
