Moomins and the World's only Moomin Museum

 We Finns love Moomins and so do many other around the world. As our convention takes place in Tampere, you can't miss visiting Moomin Museum. 

The Moomins are characters in series of novels written by Tove Jansson. Moomins are a little family of white fairy-tale characters and they live in their round house in Moominvalley. In Moomin books you also get to know other characters from Moominvalley. In all, there are nine books in this series. 

During our convention, we are organizing guided tours to Moomin Museum. It's an experiential art museum where you can admire Tove Jansson's original illustrations and beautifully crafted tableaux and so much more!
