Creative entrepreneurs' meeting – Võru

Our second meeting takes place on 20 November at the Võrumaa Museum. The venue is meaningful this time, because the museum is in its birthday week: the Võrumaa Museum turns 60! We are welcomed by gallerist Jana Huul, who over the years has brought more than 300 art exhibitions to Võru. We hear about the behind-the-scenes of a gallerist's work and some wild moments, get to know each other, discuss questions of creativity and entrepreneurship, and chat over a cup of coffee or a glass of wine.

Later, those who wish can visit the exhibition "Võru neljas vaates" (Võru in four views), which takes you to Võru of the 1920s and 1930s, when the town was one of the important cultural centres of South Estonia. At its centre are four creators who lived and worked in Võru: press photographer Ida Kepnik, magician Julius Skrastin, composer Eduard Tamm and painter Jaan Vahtra. There is also the historical exhibition "A century-old Võru through the Judeikin family history", which looks at the businesses owned by Jewish businessmen, their development and the tragic twists of their lives.

South Estonian creative entrepreneurs meet regularly, about once a month on a Friday, each time in a different place. Each meeting begins with the host talking a little about their own work and answering all questions honestly. Places are limited; drink and a small snack are provided on site. The creative entrepreneurs' meetings are supported by Võrumaa Development Centre.

Friday 20 November, 15:00, Võrumaa Museum, Katariina allee 11, Võru.
