Koru 7

KORU7 is organised by The Finnish Jewellery Art Association in cooperation with South Karelia Museum and LAB University of Applied Sciences in Lappeenranta, Finland.

The Finnish jewellery art association was founded in Lappeenranta in 2005. The association aims to promote contemporary jewellery in Finland and to improve its recognition as an art and design form. Another goal of the association is to increase awareness about Finnish jewellery internationally. As means towards those ends, the association organizes exhibitions, presentations and discussion panels, and distributes information about events.
 

• Workshops

KORU workshops have always been wonderful places to get fascinated, to learn and to meet people. International teachers have guided beginners and professionals alike through intensive workshop days with different themes.
