hub feenix residency - spots open for march!

The new non-profit center for creativity and well-being Hub Feenix has started an artist residency program. Focus on your work in an inspiring and uplifting environment. Enjoy stillness, nature and inspiring atmosphere in a beautiful old sanitarium in the middle of nature! We still have some free places for March 2023!  

The former Meltola sanitarium, with its beautiful premises, has undergone a transformation into an inspiring community center. Hub Feenix offers a harmonious, beautiful and inspiring working environment. Here you experience the stillness and beauty of nature and the possibility to deeply concentrate on your work, but in the same time you can also enjoy meeting new wonderful people. The residency has wide opportunities for collaboration and learning new skills. Hub Feenix is full of spaces where the senses delight and the spirit is lifted. Therefore, the residency period at Hub Feenix can be both artistically productive and at the same time bring new vitality, inspiration and recreation.

Hub Feenix is located in the middle of beautiful nature. After walking less than 15 minutes through the forest and across the fields along beautiful little roads, you will reach a lake where you can go swimming in the summertime. You can go for walks, bicycle and in the wintertime it´s possible to go cross-country skiing on the forest trails. Since Hub Feenix has its own cross country riding stable, it´s also possible to go on peaceful horse riding trips on the beautiful forest paths. You don´t need to have any experience about horseback riding beforehand! In the late summer and autumn the forests around Hub Feenix are full of berries and mushrooms to pick.

Wooden saunas in the peaceful back garden of Hub Feenix are heated about once a week, and everybody staying in Hub Feenix is welcome to join (we all wear swimsuits). The house hosts various dance and music events, courses, yoga classes, etc., in which it is possible to participate. Some are free, some have a participating fee. There are plenty of interesting places nearby to explore, such as the artist village Fiskars, the charming little town of Tammisaari and the castles of Mustio and Raasepori.
