Nelimarkka Museum

Established in 1985, The Nelimarkka Artist Residency welcomes professional artists from various fields from Finland and abroad and is part of the Nelimarkka Residency Program. The artist residency is based in the studio villa Villa Nelimarkka, built by artist Eero Nelimarkka for his family in 1932, with views of the surrounding fields and lake. The building is located next to the Nelimarkka Museum, approximately four kilometres from the centre of Alajärvi. The application period is in March each year.
