WHO? All children younger than the age of seven, born in or after the year 2020, and their families.
WHY? Culture Kids provides an opportunity for small children and their families to regularly attend cultural events. The service promotes the well-being and equal opportunity of Helsinki families with small children.
WHEN? Starting in 2020, each newborn in Helsinki will be paired with a sponsor from the arts and culture community.
