Join us as a partner!
As our partner, before and during the Alvar Aalto Symposium 2024 you will reach a wide range of people interested in architecture, industrial construction, urban planning, and future visions in the field.
The Alvar Aalto Symposium provides an excellent opportunity for professional networking. Taking place during the summer, the international architectural event and accompanying events programme is well suited for a training session or wellbeing at work programme, either on site in Jyväskylä (limited amount of tickets available) or virtually. The seminar ticket would undoubtedly also be much appreciated as a corporate gift to your clients.
The event’s target groups include architects, construction professionals (builders, developers, investors, etc.), students and researchers. The diverse interdisciplinary set of events would in many ways also be suitable for other audiences that share a wide interest in architecture and culture.
Check out the programme and book your tickets for the most stimulating virtual architectural event of 2024!

City of Jyväskylä
City of Jyväskylä – Capital city of Alvar Aalto’s architecture
With the population of 148 000, City of Jyväskylä is the seventh largest city in Finland and the commercial centre of the region. Competent and educated workforce and innovative companies are a source of pride in our city.
In Jyväskylä you’ll find also the largest number of masterful buildings in the whole world designed by the world famous architect and academician Alvar Aalto. The impressive portfolio of 29 locations includes, for instance, the Alvar Aalto Museum (part of the new Aalto2 museum centre opened in May 2023), Muurame Church and Säynätsalo Town Hall, which is regarded as one of Aalto’s finest works. A boat designed by Alvar Aalto, Nemo propheta in patria (“Nobody is a prophet in their own land”), is permanently on display at Jyväskylä’s Lutakko Harbour in a shelter built expressly for the craft.
Jyväskylä Region’s magnificent nature, Alvar Aalto’s architecture and UNESCO sites are part of a valuable natural and cultural heritage that we all have a responsibility to preserve. Clean nature and a vibrant urban culture must be preserved, which is why sustainability and sustainable tourism have been placed at the heart of the region’s development.

University of Jyväskylä
The University of Jyväskylä is one of the largest and most multidisciplinary universities in Finland.
It was here, in 1863, that Finnish-language teacher education began. Since then, the dialogue between research, education and society has been our driving force.
We are an open and collaborative community of nearly 2,800 experts and over 14,600 students seeking answers to the pivotal questions of today and tomorrow. Our impact extends across Finland and the world, for example through our more than 26,000 adult students.

The Jyväskylä University campus is largely made up of the buildings designed by Alvar Aalto (1951-71) for the Jyväskylä College of Education, later the University of Jyväskylä, in the 1950s. The layout, based on the winning competition proposal, is derived from the American campus principle. Originally, it consisted of buildings designed to serve both the teaching and administration of the College, including the main building and library, the teaching-practice school, the refectory and hall of residence, two gymnastics buildings, an indoor swimming pool built by the student union and subsequently extended several times, plus a residential building for staff and a boiler house. Aalto’s original scheme forms a crescent or ‘horseshoe’ around the sports ground. Read more here.

We foster interest in Finnish architecture and increase appreciation for the built environment. We make the values and expertise of Finnish architecture known internationally. We reinforce the social importance of architecture and promote the built environment’s development towards a more sustainable future.
Archinfo began its operations in 2013 as one of the eight information centres for art supported by the Ministry of Education and Culture, Finland. Archinfo was established by five key architecture organisations in Finland: the Finnish Association of Architects (SAFA), Foundation for the Museum of Finnish Architecture, Association of Finnish Architects’ Offices (ATL), Building Information Foundation (RTS) and Alvar Aalto Foundation.
Museum of Architecture and Designmuseum
Museum of Architecture x Designmuseum
Two familiar museums together towards the new! The Museum of Finnish Architecture and Design Museum Helsinki, with their internationally unique collections, will in the near future form a new national architecture and design museum. At the beginning of 2024, the two museums’ foundations merged to become the new Finnish Architecture and Design Museum Foundation. A museum company established by the foundation will maintain the future operations of the two museums. A new building is being planned for the new museum, situated in the Makasiiniranta area of Helsinki’s South Harbour. For the next few years, the Museum of Finnish Architecture and Design Museum Helsinki will continue with a joint programme at their familiar addresses in Helsinki.
