The annual art exhibition opens in Urkin Piilopirtti always on the Mother’s Day Lunch. In the summer 2020 the name of the exhibition was Art in combination with architecture, mathematics, music (musical garden) and technique. Also in this project professor Radoslaw Gryta has worked as curator.

The exhibition was open 22.6.-8.8. and after that the works continue their existent in Urkin Piilopirtti’s every day life. The best way to experience the art is to join a guided art tour.
