SAVON-RADAN actions
2014
On 1 October 2014, the Savo railway celebrates its 125 years
anniversary and the SAVON RADAN ryhmä is planning a program in which
several stations will participate. The celebration will be used to
present the various plans and to involve the population into the
further development of cultural diversity along the track.
It is our plan to invite local people to the different participating
stations by offering interesting activities, workshops, exhibitions,
art and design, music, flee markets, food, lectures, and
discussions. We are planning a program during spring, summer and
autumn to be able to involve different target groups.
Preparing the program and activities during spring, summer and
autumn. These will take place on different locations.
