🏢 About the local organisation

Cultural association of Pitsku Kylakirkko organizes concerts, seminars and other events in their own building which was originally built by volunteers in 1929 to be a church. In 1959 the parish sold the church and it became a children home and had many other functions as a factory etc. until 2007 when it got culturally orientated new hosts and new life as a small cultural centre and home.

💼 What the programme involves

The windows of the building need to restored in traditional methods. The diligent work will be guided by a local professional window repairman, who will teach the volunteers to take care of this important piece of local cultural heritage. If you are interested in working carefully with your hands in window repair and also taking part in cooking for the group this is the camp for you. There might be some other renovation related tasks also.
