Mikä se on? – a performance about the wonders of life – Wednesday Club

Mikä se on? is a performance for young children about the wonders of life, held in the library’s multi-purpose room Tempo. “If you pour water from a rubber boot onto the floor, could it create an ocean? If you find a ball on the floor, could it turn into a steam locomotive making its way through the landscape, a parent’s ear, or a baby bird learning to fly? If you give enough light, water and time, could they give rise to flowers blossoming in thousands of colours?” Kukka and Nuppu find a peculiar round object. What is it? The friends decide to find out, resulting in an adventure in which even the most ordinary of subjects turns into a great wonder and a gateway to a starry world of play. Mikä se on? is a lightly interactive performance for families with babies, which the children watch from their own seats with their parents. During the performance, baby care activities and all kinds of emotional states are allowed. We are looking forward to seeing you!

Loopy lizards and fairy-tale ferns – theatre play workshop

Let’s play! The theatre play workshop will take loopy lizards, fairy-tale ferns and children and adults on an adventure. Through shared imaginative play and improvisation, we will explore the forest and transform ourselves into forest animals, plants or even the wind, the rain or a stone. What happens in the imaginative play is decided jointly by the children and adults taking part in the theatre workshop, together with the community artists from Theatre ILMI Ö. In the theatre workshop, we will improvise short scenes, make sculptures from things found in the forest, imitate the sounds of the forest, and build a piece of environmental art: a communal nest for the forest animals. We will also organise some truly magnificent and unique house-warming parties in honour of the newly built homes and their residents. The work is experiential, engaging, based on dialogue and collaboration, fun, and designed to spark the imagination of children and their loved ones. We will start by meeting in the Glass Courtyard in the Cable Factory, from where we will walk together to the nearby park. The workshop accommodates 15 children and their accompanying adults.

The book is open – come on in!

The Pro lastenkirjallisuus children’s literature association will host a storytelling workshop for children at Annantalo. Step into another world by opening a book and reading it or listening to it. There are many different ways to venture into the world of books. When a book is opened, it is filled with letters and pictures. Who makes them all? Who reads the book, and how does it end up in the reader’s hands? There are lots of questions and lots of answers to think about together. Workshop participants may also, if they wish, step into the shoes of a critic, illustrator or writer and explain how they would narrate and illustrate the same story – in other words, to write a story on top of another story or take a look behind the narrative. Books do not always have to tell you everything, but sometimes it would be nice to know what is going through the characters’ minds at any given moment, or where they are from. Perhaps the workshop participants know something about this? Stories can also break free from books and be turned into plays. During the workshop, participants can perform short scenes from the book if they feel inspired to act. We are open to suggestions, and the workshop will take shape according to the participants’ ideas. Please register in advance by email at: kaisalange@gmail.com.

Jazz concert for the whole family at the Väreet festival: Kadi Vija 3

Kadi Vija 3 is a new band from Helsinki whose music exudes joy, a sense of liberation and space for experimentation. Sound artist Kadi Vija’s unique approach to singing and improvisation has been influenced by instrumental jazz, free-flowing thoughts and abstractness. The band’s line-up and Vija’s compositions are reminiscent of the traditional jazz wind instrument trio, in which a human voice now interprets melodies usually played by the wind instruments, accompanied by double bassist Ville Herrala and drummer Ville Luukkonen. Founded in 2013 and established as a bright spot in Helsinki’s late autumn event calendar, We Jazz Festival is known as Väreet as of 2026. Väreet continues the open-minded musical adventure across Helsinki known from We Jazz – listening to new music in a communal atmosphere and getting to know different venues. Väreet 2026 takes place in Helsinki from 2 to 5 December.

Open film screening for the whole family: ‘Urpo ja Turpo johtolangan jäljillä’

Welcome to a family-friendly film screening at Cinema Orion on Saturday 21 November at 10.30, featuring the classic children’s film ‘Urpo ja Turpo johtolangan jäljillä’ (dir. Liisa Helminen, Finland, 2018, 60 min, all ages). Based on Hannele Huovi’s popular storybooks, ‘Urpo ja Turpo johtolangan jäljillä’ is a collection of six classic films and has now been restored and is more colourful than ever on the big screen! Urpo and Turpo, two curious toy bears, live on the bookshelf in the children’s bedroom. The bears’ favourite pastime is reading, as books provide them with brilliant ideas. The bears come up with the most entertaining adventures as fairy tales blend into everyday life. Thanks to the breadfruit tree, Urpo and Turpo are saved on a desert island; they unabashedly give other characters makeovers, search for clues, flout the rules, long for peace and quiet, and compete to be the best and strongest in the world. Just like the toys from Toy Story, Urpo and Turpo come to life when the family are not looking. The Urpo and Turpo film is sure to entertain both adults and the youngest members of the family. Free tickets for the performance will be available from 1 October onwards. Book your free tickets in advance at cinemaorion.fi
