Joy and experiences from artistic hobbies!
In Vaasa, you can practice different arts at TaiKon and Kuula-opisto. Many children and young people find good friends by doing things together while also learning how to make music, dance, draw, act, and much more. A supportive atmosphere and a cosy environment provide a safe place to develop and grow.
We offer basic education in seven different forms of art. You can find out more about them on our website. On the back of this brochure, you will find our contact details. Please feel free to contact us and ask for more information.
Basic education in arts is the way to the world of art –we are happy to have you with us!
