This event is a showcase for some of the best cultural offerings in Kuhmo: music in various forms and genres, dance, theatre, exhibitions and local food. The founders of the event adopted a motto “The best of Kuhmo culture” for it and this motto have been followed through in the planning of the event ever since. The interconnection between Kuhmo and the makers of these events are mixed: some of them are currently living in Kuhmo, some former residents of Kuhmo or people whose families originate from here, and people whose involvement in Kuhmo culture has, over the years, made them to bond with the town.
