MIITTI’s Principles for safer space:
MIITTI wants to nourish a safe and pleasant environment for everyone, where everyone can feel safe as themselves. By joining as a volunteer, employee or participant of the event or activity, you agree to follow the guidelines below!
Non-discrimination
I do not make assumptions about people based on their external characteristics or names. I treat all participants with respect, and I don’t use language or take actions that discriminate based on race, gender, sexuality, disability, age, religion, or any other characteristic. I respect pronouns and names.
Boundaries
I respect others' personal space and boundaries, both physical and mental. I acknowledge that I cannot know someone else's boundaries without asking first. I ask before touching. I listen to others and adapt my behavior if someone indicates that my behavior makes them feel uncomfortable.
Creating Safe Environment
Everyone is responsible for contributing to a safe and respectful environment. If I witness harassment, I do my part to support those who experience inappropriate or offensive treatment.
Zero Tolerance for Harassment
Our space upholds a strict zero-tolerance policy towards any form of harassment. Harassment, whether verbal, physical, or online, will not be tolerated.
If you experience or witness inappropriate behavior or harassment at our events, please report it to the MIITTI or Lapinlahden Lähde staff.
Warm welcome!

Floral embroidery workshop
Lapinlahden Lähde, Lapinlahdenpolku 8, Helsinki, FISummer is coming!
Give your old or unused clothes a new lease of life by giving them a little attention. Small details can change the look of an item of clothing, and through creativity and intuition, you can bring new life into old fabrics.
Embroidery is a decorative sewing technique in which you use a needle and thread to create patterns, lettering and motifs.
In this workshop we will in addition to the floral weeks, embroider flower motifs, either on clothes/fabric you bring with you or on a canvas that you can turn into your own work of art.
When: Tuesday, May 26th, at 15.00 - 17.00
Where: Valo-tila
Lapinlahden lähde
Lapinlahden polku 8
00180 Helsinki
This workshop focuses on sustainability and on how we can use creativity to transform and change things instead of throwing them away.
Materials will be provided, but I invite you to bring some fabric you would like to give a creative touch.
No experience with embroidery or sewing is necessary to participate. All flowers are unique; we learn by doing.If you want to be part of the MIITTI community, follow us on our other platforms:
