At Marela, there is an exhibition by artist Timo Metsäjoki, consisting of hundreds of postcards written by people, as well as video greetings. The exhibition asks, what kind of message would you like to leave for future generations? Metsäjoki has collected messages from both ordinary and well-known individuals during the summer of 2024. The messages are intended for the year 2054, 30 years from now.

The messages will be on display to the public at Marela until April 17, after which they will be sealed in a time capsule for 30 years. On Wednesday, April 16, the public will have the last opportunity to add their own messages to the capsule. The message can be, for example, a letter, drawing, photograph, or small object.

Admission to Marela is free in honor of Rauma Day on April 16, from 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
