MiklagårdArts, founded in 2015 by Ceyda Berk-Söderblom, is a facilitator, enabler, and connector to promote transnational and transcultural collaborations. It facilitates artistic interventions and advocates for diversity, equity, inclusivity, climate justice and internationalization in the Finnish art scene. MiklagårdArts stands for a structure where collaboration becomes a sustainable and meaningful practice to design impactful projects and diverse content in partnership with existing arts and cultural institutions. WE FACILITATE artistic interventions to merge internationalism and locality. We promote artistic interventions with the established arts and cultural institutions of the city to make Helsinki more international and diverse. WE BUILD BRIDGES to unleash the potential between arts & well-being and arts & economic growth; we want to unlock the territorial borders between tech developers and traditional cultural institutions. WE CURATE & INITIATE tailor-made artistic ideas and stimulate creative clashes that arise when one confronts an unknown artistic milieu. We are curious and open-minded. We want to inspire creative minds and souls for innovative multi-genre projects that will enrich the practices of Finnish arts and cultural institutions. WE CELEBRATE diversity, equity and inclusion and believe inclusive values will foster cognitive diversity in the Finnish art scene. We want to help build a healthy and supportive society by cultivating understanding and compassion through the arts. WE SEEK TO SPARK SUSTAINABLE working structures for independent cultural players. We are innovative. We promote new forms when it comes to artistic work, structure, business models, and the dialogue between arts & audience. Acquiring new ways of artistic collaborations will help us achieve an accurate understanding of the world where culture continuously develops alongside human beings.
