  • Metsä , a Park Themed on “The Moomins”, the First Outside Finland
    June 30, 2015 FinTech Global Incorporated City of Hanno, Saitama Prefecture Seibu Railway Co., Ltd. Metsä , A park themed on “The Moomins”, the first outside Finland, will be opened at Lake Miyazawa in 2017! FinTech Global Incorporated (head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; president: Nobumitsu Tamai; hereafter, “FGI”) will open a gateway to the world of the Moomins—highly popular characters in their homeland of Finland as well as Japan—with a theme park built over an expansive area with Lake Miyazawa as the centerpiece in the city of Hanno, Saitama Prefecture. This will be the first true-to-original Moomin-themed facility, apart from Moominworld—a theme park in Finland, the birthplace of Moomin creator Tove Jansson—that features the lovable characters. For the opening of this facility, FGI and the city of Hanno, Saitama Prefecture (mayor: Masaru Okubo; hereafter “Hanno”) signed a Basic Agreement on Local Renaissance (hereafter, “the Agreement”) that sets out parameters for the theme park development as well as coordination and cooperation on other aspects that will help promote tourism in Hanno. Essentially the Agreement underpins joint efforts to attract tourists to the theme park and to Hanno. The land itself will be sold to FGI by the current owner of the property, Seibu Railway Co., Ltd. (head office: Tokorozawa, Saitama Prefecture; president: Hisashi Wakabayashi; hereafter, “Seibu Railway”). Around 1960, Seibu Railway began building recreational facilities at Lake Miyazawa, including Lakeside Park Miyazawako. The majestic landscape, showcased by the lake itself and the forested lands around it, is the perfect setting for the world of Moominvalley, a place of great natural beauty that is home to the Moomins, and to emphasize the concept of coexisting with nature, which is an enduring theme in the Moomin stories.

  • Stories of a Place in Time Moomin Museum in Tampere, Finland
    153 Stories of a Place in Time Moomin Museum in Tampere, Finland Diana Rimniceanu In the 2017 spring term, the professional design studio of Public Building at Tampere University of Technology in Finland set a design task for a build- ing that not only occupies and strengthens an urban place in Tampere but also presents imagined spaces: a museum for the stories, characters and places of the Moomin graphic novels by Finnish illustrator Tove Jansson. These graphic novels form the cultural and literary heart of many Finnish childhoods. For the design of such a cultural building, questions of place, landscape, the experience of spatial and material qualities are crucial. The beauty arises from the unexpected. And suddenly it was silence. The factory’s interior courtyard has its own sound of silence. Beyond the brick walls the fuss of the city life does not enter, nor the sound of the rapids, nor the wind. It is a place out of time, out of space; it gives me shelter. The project by Diana Rimniceanu begins with a museum in search of a place of its own in the city of Tampere. But it is no ordinary building . and 154 thus . no ordinary place. The intervention aspires to provide the frame- work for the imagined spaces created by Jansson. And the place? Old bare brick factory walls and a river, right in the heart of Tampere; each with its own story, building a strong and lively identity. The museum extension aspires to express the Moomin stories through an architecture that is specific and autonomous, capable of preserving the richness and uniqueness of the place while revealing the unexpected land- scapes that it hides; an architecture that grows gradually, scene by scene, creating encounters between the Moomin creatures, the historic industrial buildings and the new visitors.

    Marsh, J., Nordström, A., Sairanen H., & Shkul, M. (2019). Making the Moomins. In Kumpulainen, K. (Ed.), Sefton-Green, J. (Ed.). Multiliteracies and Early Years Innovation. London: Routledge, https://doi.org/10.4324/9780429432668 Making the Moomins A Finnish/English adventure Jackie Marsh, Alexandra Nordström, Heidi Sairanen, and Minna Shkul Introduction The Moomins are characters in a popular set of tales written by Swedish- speaking Finnish writer and artist Tove Jansson (1914–2001), first published in Finland in 1945 (Westin, 2014). The Moomin family, hippopotamus-like crea- tures, live in Moominvalley, and have featured in numerous movies and television programs. Jansson’s books about the Moomin family have been translated into 45 languages, and are among the most widely translated works of Finnish literature (Kurhela, 1996). A TV series of the Moomins was aired in the United Kingdom in the 1980s, but since then, English children’s main introduction to the Moomin world has been through Jansson’s books. This chapter outlines a project that was undertaken in a primary school in Sheffield, England, with a class of 6- and 7-year-old children, in which they engaged with the Moomins, first through the stories and books, but then through a series of maker activities in which they created Moomin artifacts using paper, clay, card, and Virtual Reality (VR) apps, among other materials. The children in the Sheffield class also communicated with a group of children from an Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) center in Helsinki, Finland, using WhatsApp, to find out about the Moomins and their land of origin, with the Finnish children providing an authentic audience for the English children’s work.

Her father, Viktor Jansson, was a Finnish copyright law. sculptor, and her mother, Signe Hammarsten Jansson, was a graphic artist and illustrator. Her younger brothers also pursued careers in the arts, Per Olov becoming a photographer, and Lars a writer and comic-strip artist. The family lived in Helsinski, where Tove Marika Jansson was born on August 9, 1914. They were, however, ethnically Swedish and part of the Swedish-speaking minority in Finland. This, combined with growing up in a rather bohemian family and eventually recognizing her lesbianism, gave Jansson a sense and appreciation of otherness; nevertheless, the closeness of her family and her deep understanding of a sense of place grounded her both in belonging to her social unit and her larger culture, a dichotomy that would inform her writing. The Jansson family spent their summers at a cottage on an island in the Gulf of Finland, a place that delighted and inspired her. In later years, she stated, "Had it not been for my very happy childhood, I might never have started writing . I never wrote entirely for children at all--maybe it was just for myself, to find a way back to the lost world of adventures with happy endings, to the confidence, the constant curiosity, and the boundless possibilities, never questioned, .
