Tallin/Turku

We are officially going to have an Tom of Finland exhibition in Turku as it is the European Cultural Capital for 2011. What great timing for me to have moved. I really hope our museum is up and running by then. I've decided to take the fall semester off, partly do to paperwork logistics with school but also so I can focus on getting my life and our projects in Helsinki in motion. That and I need to plan my wedding(s), start Finnish lessons, spend a month in Chicago, begin studying with Juhani Roininin and maybe volunteer as a docent at the Kiasma. I'm so antsy, can't wait to get home! Here are some more pictures of Tom ephemera at the Helsinki flat...
