Late-night Play Trip for Adults

When was the last time you went off your everyday track and spent a spontaneous moment under a lamppost or behind an electric cabinet?

Play trip

Here is a unique opportunity to explore the city on a summer evening with a late-night play trip for adults! The excursion is a group activity in urban environment where we will be testing different ways to play. There are no skill or fitness requirements, so it’s also suitable for adults who are still shy about adding play to their lives. The duration of the trip is about 60 minutes. Departure from Kalevan Navetta lobby on Fri 4.7. at 8pm.

Summer Artist

The excursion is a part of the project of this year’s Summer Artist, Emmi Kairenius. Emmi Kairenius (b. 1993, Sammatti) is the ninth Summer Artist of the City of Seinäjoki. This year’s working period is 2.6. – 3.8.2025. During the summer, Emmi Kairenius will carry out an art project in which she works as the official professional playmaker of the City of Seinäjoki. In this role, she explores possibilities of the play in Seinäjoki’s built environment through embodied participation—by engaging in playful interaction with the city’s structures and elements. For Kairenius, play is a way to perceive everyday surroundings in a new light and to test alternative ways of experiencing places. She invites the local community to take part in experimental play through open-to-all excursions into the built environment.
