Exhibitions in Kiasma are suitable for viewing with children
Exhibitions at Kiasma can be visited by children and adults together. Some of the artworks may seem dramatic, and not all works are necessarily suitable for viewing by young children. Nevertheless, every exhibition has art that is suitable for young viewers. Our staff will be happy to help you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I breastfeed my baby?
We ask you not to eat, drink or breastfeed in the galleries.
You’ll find peaceful places for breastfeeding on the 1st floor and on the landings between the galleries. Our staff will be happy to help you. The baby care room next to the cloakroom is provided specifically for breastfeeding and caring for babies.

Can I take my pram to the galleries?
It is permissible to visit exhibitions with a prams or pushchair. The cloakroom has pushchairs that you can borrow. The pram parking is located under the ramp in the foyer.
Note: Kiasma Café has limited room for baby prams. Our staff will be happy to help you.
Why is it forbidden to touch the works?
Touching a work of art just once may not seem like much, but even clean hands carry oils that will damage the works over time. Please move calmly in the museum and keep a safe distance of about one foot (a couple of dozen centimetres) from the works. This way the works will remain intact to be enjoyed by all for many years.
