Bookable exhibitions
Environmental School Polku has many different kinds of bookable exhibitions concerning sustainable development. These exhibitions have been produced as part of various projects, as well as with the Reuse Centre’s own funds.
The exhibitions are available free of charge for schools, kindergartens, and other similar organizations, although we charge a fee for lost or damaged posters or other parts. You must also pay for delivery expenses for exhibitions sent through the mail. Alternatively, you can pick up the exhibitions from the office of the Environment School at Kalasatama.
