As you may have noticed from our webpage, we are doing an exhibition called Poetry Ride –  the seven first years. It will be a travelling exhibition, touring around Estonia in different libraries and other exhibition venues.  And I have a hunch it might tour elsewhere in the world (or at least Nordics and Baltics...) as well. The exhibition will have its premiere in the Estonian National Library in November, and it will be open to the public 8.-28. November.  It will have things to see, hear, read and even to write.

It hasn’t been an easy task to make  an exhibition about a travelling poetry festival dedicated to translating poetry. But although the exhibition isn’t ready yet, it feels we are moving into right direction. The exhibition design is made by Jorens from Designhouse (www.designhouse.lv) and once again he has found innovative ways to present our challenging exhibits. And a big part of the exhibition are the photos and video made by Alisa Javits http://alisajavits.blogspot.com/. And big thanks go to Anniina Ljokkkoi and the other past and present trainees of the Finnish Institute in Estonia, who really have been a great help to this festival. There is till a lot to do, but it seems we are making something quite interesting.
