Espoo Museum of Modern Art
Aitio – Event Space

Host your event surrounded by art in EMMA’s Aitio space. Aitio is a flexible venue that provides a stunning setting for everything from dinners for 50 guests to lectures for over 100 attendees.
Whether you’re planning a meeting, cocktail reception, or celebration, Aitio offers a unique atmosphere enriched by two large-scale artworks: Ultima Thule, a plywood sculpture by Tapio Wirkkala from 1967, and a multi-part painting from 1966 by Danish artist Poul Gernes, composed of stripes of various colours.
The accessible venue is located directly adjacent to the exhibitions, separated by a curtain. For events requiring a quiet atmosphere, Aitio is best suited outside of the museum’s public opening hours.
Size: 180 m²
Capacity:
Meetings, workshops or dinners: max. 50 people
Cocktail events or lectures: max. 100–150 people
For larger events, the event area can be expanded into the exhibition spaces, creating an even more spacious and visually striking setting. Larger events are always planned individually. Our team ensures the safety of the artworks and helps your guests feel welcome in the museum.
Museum opening hours: Tue 11–17, Wed–Fri 11–19, Sat–Sun 11–17. Meetings and events can be arranged on opening days, 9am – 9pm. Bookings are not currently accepted for Mondays.

Momentary Sculpture Art Workshop
Unleash your inner artist! The session begins with a guided exhibition tour to spark inspiration, then continues with a creative workshop using everyday objects to build bold visual compositions.
This inspiring 30-minute workshop adds a fun, creative moment to your meeting or event. Using everyday and surprising objects, participants create striking sculptural compositions by stacking and arranging materials.
Your creation can be minimalist, harmonious, or wildly expressive. The sky’s the limit! Depending on group size and preference, works can be created individually or in small teams. At the end, each piece is given a title and presented to the group.
The workshop is designed to loosen up, boost team spirit, and spark creativity. It also invites participants to see the familiar from a new perspective.
The workshop is carried out in groups of 3–5 participants.
Duration: 30 minutes
Group size: 1–40 people, can be adapted for larger groups with staggered participation
Price on weekdays: 100 € (includes 10 participants) +10 € / additional participant

Salt Painting Art Workshop
Relax through art! The soothing workshop starts with a calm exhibition tour to focus the senses. In the creative part, participants use guided visualisations to paint meditative patterns and drawings into salt.
This calming 45-minute art workshop helps participants recharge and focus during a meeting or event. The session begins with a guided exhibition tour to awaken the senses and inspire mindfulness. Afterwards, guests take part in a creative session where they paint meditative patterns and images into salt, guided by imaginative visualisation exercises.
There’s no pressure or need for previous experience – the focus is on process over product. The artwork disappears over the course of the workshop, helping participants let go, relax, and be fully present. Held in the meeting space, this individual workshop provides each participant with their own surface, brush, and salt shaker.
Duration: 45 minutes
Group size: 1–40 people
Price on weekdays: 150 € (includes 10 participants) +15 € / additional participant
