Opening of Takaranta Art Path

On the Takaranta Art Path, nature and art meet. Citizens of all ages create artworks from biodegradable materials for outdoor visitors to enjoy: art tents, straw ornaments made from beach ryegrass, and spinners made from natural fibres and wood.

The 1.8 km path near the city centre is suitable for walking, running and cycling. The Art Path evolves and changes over the years. Starting point e.g. Ilolinnantie 48, Pitkäkari.

The Art Path opening will be celebrated on Wed, April 29 at 5:00 p.m. at Pitkänkari School, Rantakatu 5 C. The event offers activities for the whole family, including free workshops – come and sculpt forest spirits from clay guided by teachers. Juice and sweets will be served.

At the same time, we will celebrate the end of the school year of Kuvataidekoulu Purje and Käsityökoulu Solmu, as well as the 80th anniversary of Raahe-opisto.

Join us to open a trail that will live and evolve over the years!

The event is part of the official Oulu2026 European Capital of Culture programme.
