Graduation Exhibition Sponsorship
The Vapaa ’26 Graduation Exhibition will be held at Puristamo, Cable Factory, from 24 April–17 May 2026. Companies and organisations are invited to support graduating painters by helping to cover the exhibition costs.
For a contribution of €1,500, we offer logo visibility both online and in our printed materials. In addition to financial sponsorship, we also welcome in-kind support, such as materials for exhibition construction or catering for the opening and related events.
The opening, along with our communication and marketing activities, reaches a broad audience of art professionals and painting enthusiasts across Finland. The opening event typically attracts 800–1,000 guests, and the exhibition receives 3,000–4,000 visitors during its three-week run.
The graphic design of the exhibition will be created by Pekka Toivonen. All materials are trilingual (Finnish, Swedish, and English).
