February 23 was another special day for Kohila Symposium! We were recognized by Kohila and their Municipality Government (). The event is held every year around the Independence Day of Estonia where Kohila thanks the people who have contributed to Kohila in the past years.
đLIFE PROMOTER AWARD to Lumi Kristin Vihterpal () and Jekaterina Kaplan ()
The Life Promoter Award was presented to two talented and outstanding artists â Lumi Kristin Vihterpal and Jekaterina Kaplan. The dedicated work of the women has given Kohila and Estonian art life an international voice and enriched the cultural space of the community in Kohila.
Their work has made Kohila spiritually greater than its geographical borders â a place where different artistic fields, people and ways of thinking meet. Today, a small place in Estonia called Kohila is known in at least 40 countries. It is this vibrant, open and connecting cultural space that is important to Kohila as a community to raise them to a pedestal with gratitude.
đ HONORARY CERTIFICATE - FOR CONTRIBUTION TO THE COMMUNITY to Cristopher SinivĂ€li ()
Curator of the 25th anniversary exhibition of the international Kohila Symposium âAFTER FIRE AFTERLIFEâ, who brought together the works created at the symposium over the past quarter century and opened up Kohilaâs artistic heritage to a wide audience both in Estonia and in an international context.
We want to thank again everyone who has seen us, spread the message of Kohila Symposium, been there with us, worked with us, smiled with us! This journey has been incredible and we are very much excited to see what the years upon us will bring!
See you already this July in Kohila! Much more to come. đ
