The first exhibition of Children's Gallery included artworks made by students of Juhannuskylä school 1-2A. The works in the exhibition were created during the Tumpkin's dreams of the cultural education program Taidekaari, where the children visited the Moomin Museum and participated in a visual arts and dance workshop. In the workshop, feelings were made into pictures through colors and characters.

Children's Gallery: Animal Friends
4.4.-7.5.2024

The participants of the free and linguistically accessible Art Hours at the Children's Cultural Centre Rulla painted works whose starting point was not only the language and gestures of painting, but also environmental empathy. The participants of the Art Hours were between the ages of 5 and 11. 

The classes are part of Rulla's Green Flag activity. The green flag is a sustainable development program and environmental certificate.

Children's Gallery: Colour Immersion art from Babies and Toddlers
10.5.-20.6.2024

Spring's last Children's Gallery displays artworks from colour immersions of babies and toddlers. The artists in the exhibition are between the ages of 6 and 24 months. Babies' colour immersion is a multi-sensory art workshop developed by Pori Children's Culture Center, where you feel and observe different colors, feelings and create your own impression.

During the spring of 2024, colors, creatures and various characters appeared on the outer walls of Culture House Laikku. The art made by children can be seen at the parade place in the center of Tampere, when the artworks created in the activities of the Children's Cultural Centre Rulla and the cultural education program Taidekaari took over part of the tarpaulin covering Culture House Laikku. 

The works can be seen on Laikku's exterior walls during the facade renovation until the end of 2024.

In the spring of 2024, art made by pre-school and young students was seen in the park areas of Tampere. In art planting boxes spring flowers were accompanied by important messages written on flags, growing sculptures and shelters for little creatures and colorful animals. The works for the boxes were made by pre-school students in the Taidekaari workshops, whose themes were architecture, public art and urban nature. 

The art planting boxes have been implemented in cooperation with the cultural education program Taidekaari and the green planning of the City of Tampere, Tampere Infra and the Tampere Parish Union.

Children's and Youth's Gallery can also be seen at tram stops around Tampere in the summer! 

A total of 14 artworks can be seen at the stops from the Children's Gallery exhibitions that were on display in the Culture House Laikku's Corridor Gallery in the spring 2024, as well as from Taidekaari's Rytmireilaajat entirety.
