The Nordic Institute in Åland (NIPÅ) is pleased to announce that we have hired Alexandra Trizna as a new project manager. She starts her new position on April 14th.

Alexandra Trizna originally comes from an artist family and she has a master's degree from the Saint Petersburg Academy of Arts and has lived in Åland for four years. Alexandra has worked extensively to create exhibitions in both Gothenburg, Stockholm and Åland. Her broad art background is also supplemented by project management experience, and her focus has been on children, young people and adults in various projects.

Alexandra has a fine network in the cultural area both in Åland and in the Nordic countries. Her experiences range from everything from the museum world to galleries. This, combined with her own experience of working as an artist, we believe will be to her advantage in her new role as project manager at NIPÅ.

I have worked for many years in the cultural and arts sector and now I look forward to working with others and creating many interesting projects which strengthens cultural life between Åland and the other Nordic countries.
