\u00c4ksi [pre]opinion Festival<\/h2>\n

Three stages for discussions. ART = INVIROMENT?!<\/strong><\/h2>\n

On July 20th, the [pre]opinionfestival will once again take place by Lake Saadj\u00e4rv in \u00c4ksi. This year’s festival discussions will revolve around themes of nature and art, environment and culture.<\/p>\n

ART = ENVIRONMENT?!<\/strong><\/p>\n

The \u00c4ksi [pre]opinionfestival will be held for the second time on July 20th, both in front of and inside the Ice Age Centre.<\/p>\n

Discussions will cover topics ranging from recycling in the tourism sector and environmentally sustainable event management to how nature has inspired people to create.<\/p>\n

“I am pleased that we received quite substantial ideas from our topic gathering,” said [Eel]arvamusfestival head Kadri Valner. “Our idea of discussing the coexistence and conflicts between humans and the environment resonated with tourism promoters, libraries, and nature enthusiasts alike.”<\/p>\n

The selected discussions for the [Eel]arvamusfestival were proposed by the Tartu City Library, Tartu 2024, Bioneer, Tartu tourism organizers, young biology students, and others.<\/p>\n

Discussions will take place on two stages, and there will also be a community area in \u00c4ksi featuring environmental art workshops and excursions in the vicinity, led by artists and educators Kadri Kosk and Hando Tamm.<\/p>\n

Among the speakers are Veljo Runnel, Urmas Tartes, Triin Pikk and many other esteemed thinkers.<\/p>\n

The discussions will adhere to the good practices of the Paide Opinion Festival, thereby promoting a broader culture of discussion.<\/p>\n

The day will conclude with a film evening, “Wild South,” and a concert by the band Lonitseera at the Ice Age Centre.<\/p>\n

The [pre]opinionfestival is FREE for everyone, and the concert ticket costs \u20ac15. Admission to the Ice Age Centre is \u20ac11, and a raft ride costs \u20ac4.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The event takes place outdoors on Saturday, July 20th, from 12 – 17, at the \u00c4ksi Stone Park near the Ice Age Centre. The evening concludes with an entertaining concert at the Ice Age Centre (with ticket) by LONITSEERA <\/a>.. Find more about the contsert from here: https:\/\/fienta.com\/marten-kuningas-ja-robert-linna-kontsert-jaaaja-kesk\u2026<\/a><\/p>\n

In addition, there will be boat trips to Saadj\u00e4rve lake and various activities in Ice Age Centre.<\/p>\n

Everyone is welcome to the festival, whether you want to listen, think, ask questions, or participate in discussions on important societal topics. It’s a place to find like-minded individuals and discover new ideas, perspectives, and viewpoints, all while enjoying a pleasant time. The festival offers insights into what Estonians think and what concerns or brings them joy.<\/p>\n

The \u00c4ksi [pre]opinion Festival is part of the core program of the European Capital of Culture Tartu 2024.<\/strong><\/p>\n
