WORKSHOP: Everyday Life in Historical Central Finland
Aalto2, Jyväskylä
- 29.8.2026 (12.00-15.00)
Welcome to a hands-on workshop where you can discover, experience and explore everyday life in Central Finland in days gone by.

How were houses built, and where did people get their food? How was laundry washed and ironed before modern household appliances? How did people travel, and what kinds of toys did children play with? These and many other fascinating aspects of everyday life in the past can be explored in this hands-on workshop organised by the Central Finland Museum.
Participants are welcome to join the workshop at their own pace and according to their own schedule.
The workshop is part of the European Heritage Days and the autumn season opening of Jyväskylä Art Street. Admission to the museum centre is free throughout the event day.
