Uniarts Helsinki’s 10-year anniversary
Uniarts Helsinki is celebrating its 10-year anniversary in 2023. The special year will culminate in September with celebrations at the opening ceremony of the academic year and at Uniarts Fest, the university’s arts festival.
Uniarts Helsinki was created to promote the status of the arts
Uniarts Helsinki was founded in 2013 when the Academy of Fine Arts, Sibelius Academy, and Theatre Academy were merged. The new university was given the special mission to promote the status and autonomy of the arts in society and to make an impact on the Finnish artistic and cultural life as a whole.

Long-running traditions
The three academies of Uniarts Helsinki have roots deep within the Finnish art education and history of art. Even though Uniarts Helsinki as a united university is young, the histories of our academies date back to the turn of the 20th century.
Anniversary’s event highlights
The main theme for Uniarts Helsinki’s anniversary year is looking towards the future where art continues to be a part of meaningful life. See the spring’s 2023 event highlights. The list will be updated later with more events organised by the Theatre Academy.
