When the statue of Uno Cygnaeus standing in a park in Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4 begins to hear disturbing sounds from the modern school, something unexpected happens: the father of elementary school comes to life. A journey through Finnish history begins. A journey that will encounter misbehaving students, big dreams and human mistakes, friendship, music, the joy of learning and a question that is still relevant today: Why is school really needed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Uno C's Lessons is a musical monologue for the whole family that combines history, humor, songs and touching stories into a unique theatrical experience. Come along on a journey through time to meet the man who believed that every child deserves a chance to learn. On stage is Aaro Vuotila.

The exhibition 13 Stories of Humane Design presents 13 architectural sites by Alvar Aalto, which are now nominated for UNESCO World Heritage List. For the exhibition, author Sanna Puutonen has written 13 fictional stories from the perspectives of the users and experiencers of the buildings.
At the event, writer Sanna Puutonen and Director of Urban Planning and Land Use Leena Rossi will discuss architecture and literature: how both art forms create spaces and atmospheres for people to experience. They will consider what building design and architecture aim for, and how these Aalto buildings reflect their time. They will also look at what kind of thoughts and visions a city can have - even dreams of creating paradises (in Aalto's words) for people to experience and inhabit. And how Jyv\u00e4skyl\u00e4's architecture reflects different times in society. The discussion event is part of the European Cultural Environment Days event and admission to the Aalto2 Museum Centre is free all day. Organised by:. Alvar Aalto Museum<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
