Summer surprises for Äkkigalleria

On Thursday the 30th of June 2011, in the heat of summer on the Suomen Suvi in the middle of lake Päijänne, at 12pm exactly, Äkkigalleria was awarded the Central Finnish Art Award (Keski-Suomen taidepalkinto 2011). Äkkigalleria is truly delighted to receive this recognition and would, again, like to thank all those involved in making these events happen, notably: all the artists who, at a moments notice make new work for these spontaneous exhibitions, the Jyväskylä Artists Association, Galleria Harmonia and the Jyväskylä Art Museum who lend material and equipment for the successful installation of the Äkkigalleria exhibitions, and all of our visitors and supporters who make it all worth while!!!
Thank you!
