The exhibition presents the winning works of the Children’s Glass Design Competition. The competition was organized by Nuutajärvi Glass Village Cultural Foundation in early 2026 for designers aged 7–12. Nearly 300 children from across Finland participated through their homes, schools and hobby groups.

The works in the summer exhibition by Lasismi, a glass studio based in Riihimäki, combine traditional glassblowing techniques, contemporary artistic expression, and a constant exploration of the material’s possibilities.

The works in the exhibition are inspired by light, the power of the sun, and the cycle of the moon, as well as their effects on the surrounding nature and on humans.

The Oiva Toikka Birdnest is a permanent exhibition of glass birds designed by artist and professor Oiva Toikka. It tells the story of both the birds and Oiva Toikka himself. Toikka’s birds were produced in Nuutajärvi for more than 40 years. The first mass-produced flycatchers took flight in 1972, beginning the birds’ migration across the world. 

Reflections and Seasons of Growth by Paulina Varis explores a moment where direction is not given, but must be chosen. It is a kind of love letter to the experiences, lessons, and memories that shape us, yet are rarely shared.

Seeing Through Glass is an exhibition by multidisciplinary artist Henri Carrara, celebrating a luminous dialogue between the masters of the past and the innovators of today. Through a series of visual triptychs, Carrara explores a selection of Finnish and international glass artists using three complementary techniques, inviting viewers to discover new perspectives of creative genius.

The Prykäri Glass Museum’s permanent exhibition showcases glass made in Nuutajärvi from the 19th century to the present day.
