ISME World Conference
The ISME World Conference, held every two years, is one of the most significant events in arts education and research worldwide. The International Society for Music Education (ISME) was established in 1953 by UNESCO. The organization represents about 80 member countries worldwide, with its core belief being that experiencing music in various forms is an important part of life. The theme of the 2024 World Conference is to explore the significance of music and arts education as promoters of mental resilience and cultural transformation required by the ecological crisis. The event will provide a platform for arts educators around the world to learn with and from each other, share viewpoints and envision ways forward.
Mannerheimintie renovation project
Access to the Musiikkitalo from the direction of Mannerheimintie will be difficult. We recommend that you allow enough time for your arrival and use the entrance on the side of Kansalaistori if possible. According to current information, the entrance to Mannerheimintie will also remain in use throughout the renovation, but pedestrian routes can be challenging at times.
