The Together Again Festival is a multidsiciplinery contemporary arts festival held on the 8th of September 2023 at Helsinki Central Library Oodi, Finland and online. The festival is free and open to all!
Together Again is an expansive art project fostering gatherings, workshops, intercultural dialogues and socially engaged art, organised by the Finnish Academic and Cultural Institutes across the world. Together Again presents six community-based works to audiences in Amsterdam, Helsinki, London, Madrid, New York, Oslo, Paris, and Porto, as well as online. The project takes place throughout 2023 and culminates in a one-day festival held in Helsinki Central Library, Oodi on the 8th of September 2023. The festival is free and open to all!
In the spring of 2020, as a response to the challenges caused by the pandemic, the Institute network announced an open call for new international art projects under the title of Together Alone. The open call sought artistic proposals related to the state of emergency, radical change, and resilience. The second iteration Together Alone 2.0 was launched in 2021, resulting in the exhibition Elastic Alliances at Hanaholmen Cultural Centre in Espoo, Finland and the seminar Artistic Collaborations in a Flux, focusing on new forms of artistic collaboration.
Together Again concludes the Together Alone trilogy and partakes in rebuilding of the international cultural field.
Together Again includes four new commissions from artists Matti Aikio, Minna Henriksson, Uwa Iduozee, and the Kairos collective. In addition, projects by artist Aapo Nikkanen & Léa Domingues and the artist collectives Post Theatre Collective and Pehmee-kollektiivi (The Soft Collective) are developed further on from the earlier phase of the project.
