Kunsthaus Jägermeister is an art project funded by Jägermeister. The goal of the project is to give artists a place to create art, make connections, learn about being a professional artist and gain a visible foothold in the Finnish art scene.
Every autumn, Kunsthaus provides a group of artists with a creative space, top-notch art equipment, exposure through networking events, media presence, and knowledge through workshops and talks. The principles on our team is sharing ideas, perspectives and concepts to learn from each other’s viewpoints.
The residency in 2025 is happening in Helsinki between 1.9. and 12.10. Our address is Merimiehenkatu 36 D, 00150. This year's programme will be published later!
Kunsthaus Jägermeister is all about creating art without limits.
Kunsthaus Jägermeister features interesting international and domestic visitors and keynote speakers who teach the Kunsthaus artists and guests about different fields of art. The keynote events or "Kunst-Talks" are interactive, eye-opening presentations and conversations about current topics in the art scene for art lovers, artists and guests alike. The residency structure and its events vary each year. For the upcoming events, please follow our social media channels @kunsthausjagermeister.
Our main partner is Tempera, who offers all the top-notch equipment our artists need to create their art.

Kristina collaborates with organisations that curate exhibition programs, music events, and interdisciplinary projects, contributing to the growth of the local and international creative community.
