What do you wish for yourself, your loved ones, or the world?

"Hope Lives Here " is an interactive text-based art installation by Sananhaltija, built around the thoughts, hopes, and dreams written by city residents at Tapiontori. The sentences written throughout the day come together to form a shared, living textual landscape that invites people to stop, read, and find hope in the midst of everyday life.

You can participate by writing your own sentence based on the provided prompts, or simply browse through the work and read others’ thoughts. Participation does not require any prior writing experience, and children are also warmly welcome to join along with an adult.

Welcome to write, read, or just take a moment to relax. Hope lives here—and maybe in you, too!

The event is one of the City of Espoo’s “Future Stories: Art Moments.”

Date and Time: August 8, 2026, 12:00–16:00
