International visitor programme

Frame supports the networking of Finnish contemporary art professionals by inviting international art professionals to visit Finland. Our guests include curators, researchers and cultural producers. We tailor an individualised programme for each guest based on their interests.

If you are working on a project that includes artists based in Finland and wish for support in organising a visit to Finland, please contact Frame’s Head of Programme in order to discuss the possibility of receiving help with planning a programme of artist and curator meetings and/or financial support towards travelling and accommodation costs. The emphasis of the visitor programme is on supporting visits that benefit the local contemporary art scene as broadly as possible.

Large part of Frame’s visitor programme is produced in collaboration with other international and local organisations and agents. Frame also awards travel grants for international art experts visiting Finland.
