#StopHatredNow 2025

#StopHatredNow is an intercultural and anti-racist week-long platform organised once a year in collaboration with several art and intercultural organisations. The platform strives to create discourse and offers tools to create a more inclusive, diverse and feminist art field; inclusivity, diversity, non-discrimination, accessibility and social as well as ecological sustainability are issues that determine the future of every art and cultural institution.

#StopHatredNow is aimed at individual artists, cultural influencers, and institutions of art and culture, but anyone interested in the topics is welcome.

The events are held in English or Finnish. The language of each event is written in the program. All events are free of charge.

In case your organisation, association or place of work would like to be part of enabling sustainable change and open discourse in the field of arts and culture, contact us! You can send your message to media[a]urbanapa.fi.

Institution day May 12

What is the role and responsibility of an art institution in a time of multiple crises? What are the horizons of art and culture? How could an institution be a beacon of hope in the dark, promoting equality, diversity and joy?

The Institution Day is meant for those working in art and culture institutions who think diversity, equality and inclusion are important aspects of any institutions work, now and in the future. Welcome to Taiteen edistämiskeskus - Taike in Hakaniemi on Monday 12th May 2025.
