Cultural Companion Service (Kulttuuriluotsi)
You can request a Cultural Companion to join you on a museum or exhibition visit.
A Cultural Companion is not a guide. Instead, they provide company during the visit. You can discuss the exhibition and share your thoughts and impressions with them.
- Museum visits with a Cultural Companion are free of charge for groups of fewer than five people.
- Anyone can book a Cultural Companion for themselves or for another person, such as a friend, family member, or client.
Voit pyytää mukaasi kulttuuriluotsin näyttelyyn tai museoon.
Kulttuuriluotsi ei ole opas. Hän on seurana kävijälle. Hänen kanssaan voi keskustella näyttelystä ja jakaa ajatuksia.
